  • PhyA is an interaction partner of Fhy1 (parts BBa_I757002, I757004)
  • Purpose: design of a light switchable interaction
  • this part codes for Amino acids 1-406, encompassing the potential Fhy1-interaction domain
  • N-terminus of this protein should not be fused for fusions to avoid disturbance of folding and potential Fhy1 interaction ("N-part")
  • SwissProt: P14712
  • NgoMIV / AgeI protein fusion part
  • iGEM Team Freiburg 2007
  • synthetic DNA by GeneArt optimized for E.coli
  • Part in pGA4 vector (AmpR, ColEI ori)

Characterisation

The majority of phytochromes (PhyA to PhyE) in Arabidopsis thaliana are subject to conformational changes induced by light. On the contrary, only PhyA and PhyB were found to have the interacting proteins upon the light illumination [1,2,3]. PhyA was found to have as its partner the FAR-RED ELONGATED HYPOCOTYL 1 (FHY1) [4].<p> <p style="text-indent: 40px"> The biotechnology is always seeking gene expression systems with both spatial and temporal regulation. And light could be the answer as it is not toxic, homogenous and the unicellular organisms are normally transparent to visible light. PhyA/FHY1 couple can be used as an optogenetic regulation system if PhyA is fused to Gal4 DNA binding domain (GBD), and FHY1 is fused to Gal4 activation domain (GAD). Such a system would allow activation of the transcription of the promoter Gal1/10 by exposing the yeast to red light (660nm). Since PhyA is linked to a chromophore which, under the action of wavelength 660 nm, changes the intrinsic conformation of PhyA. This change of configuration allows PhyA and FHY1 to interact. This interaction is reversible under far-red light (740 nm) or after a while in the dark. -two photos from desing -article sorokina -article structure-conformation+photo -FHY1
