ParaBAD:RBS-FFAR2:AVPR2 tail:TCS-LacI-terminator


Usage and Biology

This composite part constitutes the G-protein coupled bioreceptor composite of the dual TANGO-GPCR assay (the other part is the b-arrestin-2 constituent, placed under the control of the arabinosed-induced promoter. FFAR2 is a naturally found eukaryotic GPCR protein that exhibits high affinity for SCFAs (acetic, propionic and butyric acid)(Dogra, Sona, Kumar and Yadav, 2016) . After background searching through the NCBI database, we have identified the gene coding sequences needed for the designing of this gene construct. More specifically, a vasopressin receptor 2 segment has been attached to the C-terminal of the receptor, as it mediates recruitment of a TEV tagged b-arrestin-2, along with a TEV cleavage site. When TEV protease cleaves , the lac repressor is released and binds to the lac operator . In the presence of SCFAs the GPCR is activated.

Design Notes

The coding sequence was domesticated . We removed BsmBI ,BsaI , BtgZI, BpiI sites in order to be compatible with GoldenBraid and MoClo. The sequence is cloned in alpha1R vector BBa_K3505008 and has overhangs compatible for Golden Braid cloning.
