Part:BBa_K2243018
Bxb1 attB_322F_Bxb1 attP
To test the influence of Bxb1 attB/P to terminator L3S3P22 (abbreviation: 322) in the forward direction.
Usage
We constructed this part to characterize the recombination efficiency of the recombinase Bxb1 gp35 (BBa_K2243012). It consists of the terminator L3S3P22 (abbreviation: 322) in the forward direction flanked by attB and attP sites of recombinase Bxb1 gp35. Upon recombination, the orientation of the terminator changes. As a result, expression of downstream sequence is initiated, and upstream sequence is transcribed.
Biology
The attP site of Mycobacteriophage Bxb1 is used to integrate phage DNA at the host attB site of Mycobacterium smegmatis, generating the recombinant junctions attL and attR. DNA cleavage and re-ligation occur at the central crossover region at attB and attP, which allows the sequence to be flipped, excised, or inserted between recognition sites. We obtained the terminator, attB and attP sites by oligo synthesis.
Characterization
1. We first characterized the terminator strength using the following formula:
Ts=〖GFP〗of the random sequence/〖[GFP]〗with the terminator
And we sifted out 6 desirable unidirectional terminators without potential cryptic promotor in both orientations.
