'''Introduction:'''

-
This is the nuclear inclusion protease, endogenous to Tobacco Etch Virus and is used in the late lifecycle to cleave polyprotein precursors. The recognition sequence is ENLYFQG/S [http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W9V-45PMGK3-9P&_user=217827&_coverDate=02%2F01%2F1994&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_origin=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_acct=C000011279&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=217827&md5=e075aad3a349720ad9484095d01a65be&searchtype=a]] between QG or QSDue to it’s stringent sequence specificity, TEV is commonly used to cleave genetically engineered proteins.

'''Uses:'''
+
-
 
+
-
TEV proteinase is used to cleave fusion proteins. It is useful due to its high degree of specificity [[http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6W9V-45PMGK3-9P&_user=217827&_coverDate=02%2F01%2F1994&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_origin=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_acct=C000011279&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=217827&md5=e075aad3a349720ad9484095d01a65be&searchtype=a]] and potential to be used in vivo or in vitro applications.
+

+
-
 
+
-
'''Auto-inactivation:'''
+
-
 
+
-
Wild type TEV protease also cleaves itself at Met 218 and Ser 219 [[http://www.sciencedirect.com/science?_ob=ArticleURL&_udi=B6WXR-45R86R6-5X&_user=7635175&_coverDate=06%2F20%2F1995&_rdoc=1&_fmt=high&_orig=search&_origin=search&_sort=d&_docanchor=&view=c&_acct=C000011279&_version=1&_urlVersion=0&_userid=7635175&md5=0a1521e783c0bd4126b145f3f6d766d4&searchtype=a]]. This leads to auto-inactivation of the TEV protease and progressive loss of activity of the protein. The rate of inactivation is proportional to the concentration of protease [[http://peds.oxfordjournals.org/content/14/12/993.long ]]

Long: This part is identical to the sequence submitted by Imperial 2008 team, this part was produced from BBa_K143053 by PCR. PVeg is a constitutive promoter controlled by Sigma factor A. This promoter has two binding sites which leads to high expression of downstream genes. There is some evidence that the sporulation master regulator the spoOA can interact with pVeg although the mechanism is not known.

''' ''B. subtilis'' ''dif'': sequence-specific recombinase recognition site'''
+
-
 
+
-
Cells with circular chromosomes, recombinatorial repair and homologous recombination can generate multimeric chromosomes <cite>1</cite>. ‘’Dif’’ sites are part of a system to ensure that multimeric chromosomes can be separated to monomers, which is required for proper sharing of genetic material between daughter cells.
+
-
In ''B. subtilis'' the tyrosine family recombinases such as RipX and CodV mediate the separation at 28-bp sequence Bs''dif'' <cite>1</cite>. The site-specific recombinases are able to recognize two directly repeated ''dif'' sites and excise the fragment flanked by the two sites <cite>2</cite>.

+
-
 
+
-
The site-specific recombinases, endogenous to ‘’B. subtilis’’ strains are able to recognise Bs’’dif’’ sites and recombine out the strand of DNA directly flanked by the two sites. Recombination leaves a single dif site.
+
-
 
+
-
The construct was previously engineered to homologously recobine into the genome of ‘’B. subtilis’’. Integration sequences such as amyE <bbpart>BBa_J143001</bbpart>, <bbpart>BBa_J143002</bbpart> can be used to achieve this.
+
-
 
+
-
Source: The dif sites were made by annealing synthestised oligoes.
+
-
 
+
-
Design: The dif site was made by oligos designed to make overhangs for EcoRI and SpeI ( and ) or XbaI and PstI ( and ) to be used in standard Biobrick or 3A cloning.

XylE - catechol 2,3-dioxygenase from P.putida with terminator
+
-
 
+
-
Long:
+
-
Catechol or catechol 2,3-dioxygenase + O(2) is converted by a ring cleavage into 2-hydroxymuconate semialdehyde which is the toxic and bright yellow-coloured substrate.  This is a key enzyme in many (soil) bacterial species used for the degradation of aromatic compounds. The catechol 2,3-dioxygenase (pdb id: 1MPY[http://www.ebi.ac.uk/pdbsum/1mpy])  used here itself originating from Pseudomonas putida is a homotetramer of C230 monomers. The tetramerization interactions position a ferrous ion critical for enzymatic activity. It has been deduced that intersubunit interaction is essential to produce a functioning enzyme after performing N and C terminal modifications on the monomer. Coming together the subunits generate an active site.
+
-
The reaction itself takes place within seconds after the addition by Pasteur pipette or spraying of catechol at a 100mM stock solution diluted with DDH20 (used by our lab.)
+
-
The toxic byproduct is thought to interfere with cell wall integrity and cellular machinery such that exposed cells gradually die.

5' his tagged GFP-TEV linker-XylE construct is pre-made in the cell under constitutive promoter. Both Pveg promoter and spoVG RBS are best suited for maximal expression in B.subtilis. While GFP is attached to the XylE monomer via the TEV cleavable linker, the catalytic activity is low. Transcription of TEV protease allows cleavage of the linker between GFP and XylE, thus XylE is free to tetramerise into a fully functional enzyme. XylE is then able to act as described in <bbpart>BBa_k316004</bbpart>

Short: Reverse strand coding XylE
+
-
 
+
-
Long: This part contains XylE coding on the 3' strand. In many biological settings there may be read-through caused by upstream elements, however this can often be unidirectional. In settings where readthrough from 5' direction is expected to be much stronger than 3' direction, it may is advantageous to use 3' coding sequence instead of traditional 5'.
+
-
 
+
-
For the purposes of characterisation, the part was made on the minus strand to reduce background transcription. Read-through from 5' direction may provide an additional benefit. Low quantities of anti-sence RNA may be produced as the result of 5' readthrough, which may in turn reduce basal expression sometimes seen in LacI systems.

Long:
+
-
 
+
-
This part is a modified version of hyper-spank promoter for B.subtilis <bbpart>BBa_K143015</bbpart>.  Hyper-spank promoter is repressed by transcriptional repressor LacI <bbpart>BBa_K143033</bbpart> and can be induced by addition of Isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG). Constitutive expression of LacI is required for repression.
+
-
 
+
-
Promoter Design
+
-
 
+
-
The position and sequence of LacI binding was designed using existing knowledge. The stochastic nature of transcriptional repressors usually leads to background transcription. In order to minimise background the binding sites and the distance between them have been optimised.
+
-
 
+
-
Stronger binding
+
-
 
+
-
The natural LacI operator has 3 binding sites, all of which have variations in the binding sequences. Perfectly symmetric binding sequence was shown to have10-fold higher binding compared to wild type sequences. The aattgtgagc gctcacaatt sequence has been shown to be optimal for LacI binding Muller 1996 Oehler 1994.
+
-
 
+
-
Optimal distance
+
-
 
+
-
Due to the tetrameric nature of LacI it can simulataneously bind to multiple regions in the genome. Binding at multple sites can produce much stronger repression (muller 1996) by increasing local LacI concentrations. Due to the helical nature of DNA the distance between the operator sites plays an important role in the strength of repression. Maximal repression at 70.5bp, second strongest at 92.5bp and third at 115.5bp

This vector has been designed using the Pyrd 5' <bbpart>BBa_K143001</bbpart> and 3' <bbpart>BBa_K143002</bbpart> integration sequences for integration into ''B. subtilis'' genome. Insertion into the pyrD locus provides a negative selection marker as the bacterium will no longer be able to synthesise uracil. Thus medium supplement of 40ug/ml is required for growth. This phenotype makes the transformed bacterium considerably less likely to survive in natural environments.

This part is identical to <bbpart>BBa_K143023</bbpart> except for the dif site<bbpart>BBa_K3160</bbpart> integrated behind the 5' amye <bbpart>BBa_K143001</bbpart> integration sequence.

+
-
Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) <bbpart>BBa_J31005</bbpart> confers resistance to chloramphenicol, a common lab selection antibiotic. The 5' amyE <bbpart>BBa_K143001</bbpart> integration sequence allows integration into B. subtilis genome, which disrupts ability to breakdown starch. In order for integration to occur, 3' amyE integration sequence <bbpart>BBa_K143002</bbpart> is also required.
+
-
 
+
-
This part can be used as the 5' start of an amyE integration vector, the genes of interest can then be attached to the 3' end, followed by the 3' amye integratio sequwnce <bbpart>BBa_K143002</bbpart>.

B.subtilis transformation vector with LacI, targets Amylase locus
+
-
 
+

This vector has been designed using the amyE 5' and 3' integration sequences for integration into B.subtilis genome

-
'''AmyE locus'''
+
-
This vector has been designed using the amyE 5' <bbpart>BBa_K143008</bbpart> and 3 <bbpart>BBa_K143009</bbpart>' integration sequences for integration into ''B. subtilis'' genome. Insertion into the amyE locus provides a selection marker as the bacterium will no longer be able to breakdown starch. An iodine assay can be used to confirm integration. This phenotype makes the transformed bacterium considerably less likely to survive in natural environments.
+
-
 
+
-
'''Chloramphenicol Resistance'''
+
-
This vector also contains a positive selection marker, flanked by two dif sites. Chloramphenicol acetyltransferase <bbpart>BBa_J31005</bbpart> provides resistance to chloramphenicol antibiotic. Dif <bbpart>BBa_K316002</bbpart> sites allow excision of the antibiotic marker after integration, thus allowing the same marker to be used again or as a precaution against horizontal gene transfer.
+
-
 
+
-
'''Blunt end cloning site'''
+
-
PmeI restriction site <bbpart>BBa_K316013</bbpart> is designed as a cloning site. Due to the 8bp recognition sequence it is a rare site that can be used to cut the vector only once.

We  designed a protein that carries our signal peptide ComC out of the cell where a protease has access to it. The protease can then proceed to cleave ComC off the protein, allowing quorum sensing via the the ComCDE system to take place. One big problem we have to overcome is the cell wall that will obstruct the protease’s access to the protein carrying the signal peptide. The Detection module consists of a cell wall anchor, a signal peptide called ComC, and a linker that connects the two and is specifically designed to be cleaved by the protease we want to detect

Introduction: This part was used to link the cell wall binding domain (CWB) of LytC, used in the detection module, with the quorum sensing peptide (AIP) as well as providing a cleavage site for a protease we want to detect.
+
-
LytC: The part carries part of LytC on its 5’ end. This was used to ligate the linker with LytC via an internal ACCI restriction site that occurs naturally (Link to LytC sequence).
+
-
Glycin Linker: The Linker separates the CWB and the AIP and creates space for the protease to access the cleavage site; it consists of two main sections. The first six amino acids (SRGSRA) were suggested to be used specifically with LytC (Yamamoto et al. 2003). The second section consists of a several glycin residues.
+
-
TEV Cleavage Site: This sequence forms the 3’ end of the linker and is directly attached to the 5’ end of the AIP. It is 18 amino acids (GGGGENLYFQGGKLGGGG) long and was designed to be efficiently cleaved by the TEV protease, as well as being codon-optimised for expression in ''B. subtilis''.
+
-
His-Tag: To be able to purify the protein for testing, we attached a His-Tag on our linker-AIP peptide. As it would probably interfere with recognition of the AIP by the receptor it has to be removed from the final construct.
+
-
Stop Codon: In order to end translation a double stop codon was put in place.
