3'UTR, Secretion signal of Arylsulfatase ARS B2-B2

This vector is a part of the Chlamy-HUB-Collection. For the secretion of a protein in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii it is necessary that this protein is attached to a signal sequence that targets it to the secretory pathway and eventually into the medium. It has been demonstrated that the Arylsulfatase 1 (ARS1) is not only able to direct protein synthesis to the secretory pathway, it was also shown that it is able to secrete heterologous proteins (Rasala et al., 2012). The amino acid sequence of the signal peptide of ARS1 is MHARKMGALAVLAVACLAAVASVAHA.

This part was designed to be used with the MoClo standard and has B2-B2 overhangs.

Blue & Green Screening

The effect of the arylsulfatase secretion signal is used for screening of postive Cas9 incision in the SNRK locus in C.reinhardtii. The target site lies within a regultory unit, inhibiting the expression of the arylsulfatse. When cut, expression of the enzyme rises. Outside the cell the acitivity of the enzyme turns a supplemented color into blue proving the functionallity of the signal.

The blue color is generated through the activity of the arylsulfatase outside the cells, verifiying the functionality of the ARS secretion signal.
