Phytochelatin (PC) EC20 + Linker-CBDcipA-Linker

Synthetic phytochelatin EC20 (metal binding peptide) fused N-terminally to CBDcipA (a cellulose-binding domain), which contains an endogenous N-terminal and C-terminal linker sequence.

At present the site-directed mutagenesis for this construct is in progress to correct an illegal EcoRI site which was identified in the CBDcipA.

This construct is part of a library of fusions with cellulose binding domains which we designed to bind to cellulose and enable capture of heavy metals ([http://2014.igem.org/Team:Imperial/Functionalisation project page]). Other fusion parts with this metal binding protein can be seen in the table below:

Note that the start and stop codon, plus 6 bp either side of the sequence, are included the RFC25 prefix and suffix which is not shown.
