Part:BBa_K2922040
Caveolin-1 coding region
Summary
This part contains the coding region of caveolin-1 gene. Caveolae are endocytic pits located in mammalian cell surfaces where they play indispensible roles in endocytosis.
It has been shown in the literatures (1,2) that the formation of heterologous caveolae (h-caveolae) can be observed in the cytoplasm of E. coli after the heterologous expression of caveolin-1. Thus, we chose CAV1 to perform endocytosis in E.coli.
Identification
After receiving the synthesized Part DNA, restriction digest identification was done to certify the plasmid is correct, and and the experimental results were shown in Fig. 1. A separate fragment is 537 bp.
