Design Notes

This part contains the native sequences of agrC-II and agrA from Staphylococcus aureus N315. Since these two parts are forming a two component system, this is actually a composite part. The basic parts agrC-II and agrA can be yielded by using the NgoMIV or AgeI restriction sites with appropiate restriction sites in the pre- or suffix.

Source

This part is derived from Staphylococcus aureus N315 gDNA by PCR using primers with modified RFC25 prefix and suffix:

agrA-fwd: gatcgaattccgcggccgcttctagataaggaggagccggcATGAAAATTTTCATTTGCGAAGACG

agrA-rev: gatcctgcagcggccgctactagtattaaccggtTATTTTTTTAACGTTTCTCACCG

agrC-II-fwd: gatcgaattccgcggccgcttctagataaggaggagccggcTTGATTCCAACTTTTTCATCTATC

agrC-II-rev: gatcctgcagcggccgctactagtattaaccggtGTTGTTAATAATTTCAACTTTTTGAATAAAG

The two intermediated parts agrC-II and agrA were then fused by using the restriction sites EcoRI and SpeI for agrC-II, as well as XbaI and PstI for agrA, and ligation into pSB1C3 (linearized with EcoRI and PstI), thus creating the composite part agrC-IIA.
