Part:BBa_K2915275
IPTG inducible promoter (T7) with RBS TAL2 6-His-Tag with TEV site
The TAL2 is a TALEN which came from a plant pathogenic bacteria in the genus Xanthomonas. These designed proteins are able to bind itself specifically onto a DNA fragment ( 5'CCGCTG3') of a Tubercolusis gene . The promoter T7 and RBS (BBa_K525998) are regulator that are assembled with TAL2, which allows the production TAL2 with its HisTag using E.coli DH5-alpha/BL21 E3 bacteria. We also tested production of the protein and used the His-Tag to purify the protein and we tested the activity of our protein using a gel shift.

IPTG inducible promoter (T7) with RBS – TAL2-HisTag- TEV site
The promoter T7 and RBS (BBa_K525998) are regulator that are assembled with TAL2, which allows the production TAL2 with its HisTag using E.coli DH5-alpha bacteria. This part can bind itself with a DNA sequence of 5’ CCGCTG 3’ (BM2). This engineered TAL consist of repeat domain has a primary structure with two amino acids that differs in each domain, those two amino acids are a code for one nucleotide of the binding sequence selected. HD, HD, NN, HD, NG and NN are the two amino that are changed in the CCGCTG sequence, respectfully.
Usage and Biology
This Transcription Activator-Like (TAL) is a specific DNA binding protein, that is designed to recognize a specific DNA binding motif (BM1). This BM1 are present on the DNA that are amplify by PSR.
Production
To verify the production of TAL2, an SDS PAGE was performed and stained with Coomassie blue. Different growing conditions were tested to determine the best growing conditions. The production was also tested two types E.coli bacteria : -DH5a -BL21 DE3
Figure 1. SDS-PAGE of the production in DH5a of TAL, well 1, 2 and 3 are not induced of TAL1, TAL2 clone1 and TAL2 clone2, respectively. Well 4, 5 and 6 are induced at 30°C with 0.1M IPTG for 3 hours of TAL1, TAL2 clone1 and TAL2 clone2, respectively.
Fig 2. SDS-PAGE of the production in BL21 DE3 of TAL. Well 1, 3 and 5 are induced at 30°C with 0.1M IPTG for 3 hours of TAL1, TAL2 clone1 and TAL2 clone2, respectively. Well 2,4 and 6 are induced at 16°C with 0.1M IPTG overnight.
Purification
We were able to purify our protein using the HisTag on the C-terminal of our protein. We used a histidine tagged protein purification columns. To verify our purification, we performed a Western Blot analysis with a Red Ponceau staining.

Activity test
To verify the functionality of this part we did an electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) also none as a gel shift assay, which is a method that’s able to analyze the potential interaction protein-DNA. We used the gel shift assay in order to study our proteins for the respectively targeted DNA amplicons.
