phiC31 attB_435R_phiC31 attP

To test the influence of attBP sites of phiC31 to terminator ECK120034435 (abbreviation: 435) in the reverse direction.

Usage

We constructed this part to characterize the recombination efficiency of the recombinase Streptomyces bacteria phage phiC31. It consists of the terminator ECK120034435 (abbreviation: 435) in the reverse direction flanked by attB and attP sites of recombinase phiC31. Upon recombination, the orientation of the terminator changes. As a result, expression of downstream sequence is blocked.

Biology

The attP site of phiC31 is used to integrate phage DNA at the host attB site of Streptomyces bacterium smegmatis, generating the recombinant junctions attL and attR. DNA cleavage and re-ligation occur at the central crossover region at attB and attP, which allows the sequence to be flipped, excised, or inserted between recognition sites. We obtained the terminator, attB and attP sites by oligo synthesis.

Characterization

We first characterized the terminator strength using the following formula:


Ts=〖GFP〗of the random sequence/〖[GFP]〗with the terminator

Fig.2 Terminator Strength Induced with 1mM IPTG

And we sifted out 6 desirable unidirectional terminators without potential cryptic promotor in both orientations.
