Coding sequence of STV-N-luc
Design
2015 Peking iGEM combines the homotetrameric streptavidin (STV) protein with the N terminal 416 amino acids of firefly luciferase through a GGGGSGGGGS linker. Biotin-STV interaction is one of the strongest noncovalent interactions in the nature, and is frequently applied as a simple approach to generate semisynthetic DNA-protein conjugates. [1] Split luciferase is particularly useful as split bioluminescent reporter for studying protein-protein interaction. [2] In our dual molecular beacons (MB) detecting system, the fusion protein was incubated with biotinylated MB. And when two parts of split luciferase get closed to each other, they will catalyze the luciferin oxidation to produce luminescent signal that could be detected by microplate reader.
