TaqI Composite

This sequence codes for the restriction enzyme TaqI methyltransferase. TaqI Methyltransferase modifies the adenine residue (N6) of the sequence TCGA and is dam methylation sensitive.

TaqI is a 4 base cutter, leaving a 2 base overhang.

The cutting site is as shown:

TCGA -> T / CGA

AGCT -> AGC / T


As part of the Imperial 2009 iGEM E.ncapsulator project, TaqI was used along with DpnII to cut up the genetic material within the cell, completing the cell death module.
