PT7-TDRS

aspartyl aminoacyl tRNA synthetase without anticodon recognition domain under the control of T7 promoter and lac operator. This biobrick is constructed by deleting the anticodon recognition domain of AspRS from E.coli. This modified AspRS can charge Asp to tRNAAsp-TAG (BBa_K567013) and tRNAAsp-AGG (BBa_K567012).


To deprive AspRS of its anticodon specificity, we analyzed the structure of AspRS and expressed a truncated AspRS without anticodon recognition domain. Our design is shown below. This modified enzyme keeps its ability of aminoacylation while loses its activity of recognizing anticodon of tRNA.

Fig 1. The design for modification is based on the crystal structure of E.coli AspRS coupled with tRNA (PDB ID: 1C0A). This figure shows E.coli aspartyl-tRNA synthetase with and without anticodon recognition domain. After this domain is depleted, the enzyme cannot bind tRNAAsp anticodon. Yet the ability of aminoacylation is maintained.
