Design Notes

The present BioBrick assembly standard RFC does not support Protein fusion. In our project, we propose a new BioBrick assembly standard BBFRFC53---MetaPart Assembly Standard, which extending RFC 10 to Enable Scarless Protein Fusion with Type IIS Restriction Enzyme EarI and SapI.

In the previous literature，most of research work on pdu BMC(or pdu MCP) focus on Citrobacter Freundii and Salmonella enterica. Taking all of the factors together, we choose Citrobacter Freundii as the orgin of gene in our project. Because the whole genome of Citrobacter Freundii has not been decoded yet, we use the reference sequence sent to NCBI by Martin J.Warren group(GenBank: AM498294.1).

In order to make the new parts compatible to new standard, we firstly check the sequence of pduA, which we get from GenBank(GenBank: AM498294.1), with the new four restriction enzymes site EarI, SapI,SacI and BglII. Luckily, none of these site were find in pduA. Then we use the following primers to get the pduA from BBa_K371001, wichi consist of natural pduAB transcription unit. The final part consist of cds of pduA with meta-prefix and meta-suffix in its sides

forward primer:5'-GTTTCTCTTCAATGCAACAAGAAGCGTTAGG-3'

reverse primer:5'-GTTTCTCTTCAACCGCTAATTCCCTTCGGTAAGATTT-5'

The sequence results of pduAB are different from the sequence we found on Genebank. Some silent mutation locate in the sequence with no special spacial rule. We suspect that the strain we used is not same with the papar, maybe even belong to different strain of Citrobacter Freundii. Moreover the proterin sequence alignment of pduA in Citrobacter Freundii,Salmonella enterica and ours shows that the 'mutation' locate in the nonconserved site. Thus we decide to continue our experement with the gene pduA.
