N-peptide from phage lambda.

Part:BBa_K385002: Phage MS2 coat protein

Length: 414 bp

Part type: coding

Part information

This sequence encodes the MS2 coat protein from phage MS2. It has the property of being able to bind RNA stem loops in a sequence-specific manner. The sequence of the MS2 stem loops is provided in part number BBa_K385000. The coding sequence is supplied without a stop codon, so that it can be used as part of an N-terminal fusion. Sequence analysis has been confirmed.

Design Notes

We omitted the stop codon so this part could be used in a protein fusion construct, with the MS2 protein forming the N-terminal domain. A glycine rich spacer peptide was inserted at the 3' end of the sequence, to allow the N-peptide to be separated from any downstream ORF by a flexible linker.

Part:BBa_K385003: Phage lambda N-peptide

Length: 90 bp

Part type: coding

N-peptide from phage lambda. This protein coding sequence functions in a phage transcriptional termination control mechanism, by binding to an RNA stem loop (B-box Part:BBa_K385005) in a sequence specific manner. This peptide can be used as part of a translational control strategy for eukaryote gene expression. The B-box sequence should be placed in the 5' leader of a gene whose expression is to be controlled, and the N-peptide is expressed in trans to regulate ribosomal scanning. Sequence analysis has been confirmed.

Applications

The Aberdeen 2010 iGEM team has no direct experience of using BBa_K385003, but the closely related part BBa_K385004. consisting of a tandem repeat of the N-peptide, allowed the functional expression of a downstream GFP reporter.

Design Notes

The part was engineered with an AUG, but no stop codon, to allow the part to be used as a translational fusion with another downstream open reading frame. A glycine rich spacer peptide was inserted at the 3' end of the sequence, to allow the N-peptide to be separated from any downstream ORF by a flexible linker.
