Vector iGem_02 Ax7R- RR

This part synthesize a transcription activator like (TAL) effector protein. They were found in Xanthomonas bacteria. These bacteria are plant pathogenes and infects plants via a secretion typ III system. In the plant cells these proteins binds promoter sites. This leads to a transcriptional activation of the genes behind the promoter. The proteins contains tandem repeats up to 34.5. Each repeat binds one nucleotide of the target sequenz. The 12. and 13. Aminoacid of each repeat leads to the specific binding of the DNA sequence.

We circularised the TAL-effectors with the help of Inteins at the N- and C- Terminus of each TAL-effector.

The 12. And 13. Aminoacid of each of the 11.5 repeats from our TAL Hax3 – 2xNN are: NG NN NI NI NN NN HD NG NG NN NI NG NN NI NN HD NG They bind the DNA sequence: T G/A A A G/A G/A C T T G/A A T G/A A G/A C T
