CsgA

Details

• Types: DnaRegion
• Roles: Coding; CDS
• Sequences: BBa_K1583000_sequence (Version 1)

Description

This gene encodes for the protein CsgA. CsgA is a curlin subunit that can self-assemble into curli after nucleation on CsgB. They are produced in an unpolymerized form and secreted from the cell.

CsgA is naturally produced by e.g. E. coli K-12 MG1655 from the operon CsgBA. A second operon, CsgDEFG encodes four additional proteins that are required for the curli assembly and secretion.

Notes

The nucleotides encoding for the third and fourth amino acids of the gene are changed to improve the success change of synthesis

Source

The DNA was synthesized. The sequence originates from the genomic DNA of E. coli K-12 MG1655 (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/949055).
