CCP1-Synthetic Notch Receptor

Description and Usage

This composite part codes for a synthetic receptor sensitive to the autoreactive B-cell receptor secreting ACPAs. CCP1 syn notch receptor consists of three main domains, first the extracellular domain represented in tagged citrullinated vimentin conjugated to CD8 alpha signal that mediates the expression of the receptor on the cell membrane, second the transmembrane domain represented in mouse notch core protein that is characterized by mechanosensitive structure that transfer the signal from the extracellular domain to the third intracellular domain that contains our potent transcription module VP64 which trigger the expression of our therapeutic agent (Cas12k\gBAFF-R) as shown in figure 1. and figure 2.

Figure 1 . illustrates the structure of our vimentin synthetic notch receptor, which is formed of 3 components: first, the tagged CCP1 antigen within the extracellular surface of MSCs; second, the mouse notch core protein; and finally, ZF21.16-VP64, representing the internal domain releasing our transcription module VP64





Figure 2. illustrates the design of our genetic circuit coding for the vimentin synthetic notch receptor.






literature characterization

The study used gel electrophoresis to structurally characterize CCP1 compared to other parts. In Addition to studying its presence and association with neural tissues in different cross sections.

A)They observed ccp1 in proteins of brain, spinal cord and peripheral nerves.They confirmed that by detection of extra band in HEK293 transfected with ccp1-YFP fusion proteins and absence of signals in pcd mouse brain B)They found relation of ccp1 with myelinated axons(NF200) but not compact myelin (MBP) C)They found ccp1 in motor neurons( CHAT) in the ventral horn of spinal cord .

characterization by mathematical modeling

This model is to simulate kinetics of the binding between CCP1 of the Syn-Notch on the surface of the stem cell to BCR of autoreactive B-cell. When stem cells are injected into the body, the amount of free CCP1 of the synthetic notch receptor increases, and as BCR binds to it, the amount of free CCP1 portion decreases, forming a binding state of both that activates the internal domain ZF21.16VP64 of the Syn-Notch Sequence and Features
