  • Our design:

To achieve our specific aim, we have designed a novel reporting device (Speedy reporter) for quickly detectin and measuring the mRNA location and quantity, it can also be used for protein detection. And we design a novel switch (Speedy switch) for control the mRNA translation of gene expression. We have also designed a faster degradation device (Speedy protein degrader); it allows us to regulate the degradation time for studying the mRNAs without the interference from translation and quickly stopping the gene expression.
The parts our project is made up of:

  • Speedy switch
    • Faster production of protein by inducing the translation of pre-transcribed RNA molecules.
  • Speedy reporter
    • Using mRNA aptamers and split GFP-eIF4A reporter systems to show promoter activity faster.
  • Speedy protein degrader
    • Fast, specific, and constitutive proteolysis achieved by engineering fluorescent proteins with LVA
  • Our institute
