Toehold switch for hsa-miR-27b-3p with luciferase

Toehold switches are synthetic riboregulators that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally. Gene expression can be activated in the presence of a cognate single stranded RNA molecule that contains an arbitrary sequence (the trigger RNA). The trigger RNA binds to the switch through base pairing, resulting in translation of the protein coding region. This part codes for a toehold switch that contains a region that is complementary to the micro-RNA hsa-mir-27b-3p (the trigger RNA). The toehold switch is activated by hsa-mir-27b-3p and regulates production of Luciferase. Luminescence intensity from Luciferase is proportional to the number of toehold switches activated, thus indicating the levels of hsa-mir-27b-3p present.
