Fusion of c-myc-tag and gene III
The gene III protein is a coat protein from the filamentous bacteriophage M13. It appears only 3-5 times on the tip of the phage and is responsible for infection of bacterial cells. It is usually fused to the gene of interest to determine protein-protein-interactions of its expression product using M13 phage display system. The gene III-protein consists of three domains: one C-termial and two N-terminal domains. Gene III was generated as biobrick several times for instance M13003 (2006) and M31537 (2007). It has been shown that proteins of interest fused to the carboxy-terminus of gene-III-proteins can be functionally displayed on the surface of phages (Fuh, 2000 and Rakonjak, 1999). In the course of our project a phagemid was constructed carrying truncated gene III (only encoding C-terminal domain) as biobrick. To enable easy purification and detection of gene-III-fused proteins additionally a myc-tag-sequence was merged before gene –III-sequence.
