Leucine zipper fused to T18 domain of cyaA from Bordetella pertussis

This part consist of the leucine zipper region of the yeast GCN4 protein fused to the T18 domain as used in the bacterial two-hybrid system. This part allows test of functional complementation between the T18 and T25 domain. When T18-zip and T25-zip are co-transformed, the homodimerisation of the two leucine zipper will cause association of the T18 and T25 domain and catalyse formation of cAMP. By using a cAMP-induced reporter system, one can detect correct complementation [1].
