Part:BBa_K3380600
TXO ArsR regulated construct under T7 promoter (BBa_K3380103) expressing iSpinach
The Edinburgh iGEM team 2020 designed a construct comprising a fluorescent RNA aptamer (iSpinach BBa_K3380150) flanked by a tRNA scaffold (F30 BBa_K3380101 and BBa_K3380102) under an ArsR transcription factor regulated promoter (BBa_K3380103). It was designed to test the ArsR regulated promoter. The construct is capable of exhibiting fluorescence being a transcription only construct. Simultaneously we tested the efficiency of transcription in the absence of a terminator in a cell-free extract. The T7 RNA polymerase is capable of synthesizing transcripts via run-off transcription in the absence of a terminator (because the DNA template is linear). Figure 1 illustrates a schematic design of the construct.
Usage and Biology
The efficiency of the ArsR transcription factor repression was tested using the Cuprividus Metallidurans CH34 cell extract under a class III strong promoter.
Figure 2 shows the a schematic design of the construct.
