Lure2 sequence downstream of pBAD

The PAM and potential off-target sequence are located directly downstream of the promoter (BBa_K3365003), where dCas9 might bind wrongly and block RNAP. In our part, the “lure2” is the potential off-target sequence for PDCD1 CRISPR gene editing mentioned in the literature, which might be identified and bound by the complex of dCas9 and sgRNA. According to the reference, the absolute off-target rate is 0.05143%.

Usage and Biology

This part is used to combine the signal of arabinose and the off-target or not of dCas9. The uninduced transcriptional level downstream the signaling is very low. In the presence of arabinose, transcription from the pBAD promoter is turned on. In the presence of both arabinose and the complex of dCas9 and sgRNA, the complex might bind to the lure2 sequence and the transcription might be partially inhibited because of the potential block of RNAP.

Results

The lure2 sequence is added to the promoter of the L-arabinose operon of E. coli (pBAD) (BBa_K3365003) by PCR. The eletrophoretic profile of the PCR product and the sequencing result reveal the successful construction of the fragment.
