[http://2012.igem.org/Team:Slovenia 2012 iGEM team Slovenia ] found out that NicTAL part deposited in the Registry by the Slovenian iGEM2010 team was missing subdomain in DNA-binding domain, so our team added this missing part on N terminal sequence. Apart from adding N terminal sequence, we added HIS tag on N terminal end and NLS on terminal C end of NicTAL12 (Figure 1). This construct was later used for designing TAL-based activator and repressor by adding VP16 and KRAB domain.

Figure 1:Sequence alignment of NicTAL10 and NicTAL12, showing differences between constructs.

Figure 2: Results of testing NicTAL:KRAB repressor demonstrated better binding ability of NicTAL12.
