Sequences BBa_K1583203_sequence (Version 1)

Description

CsgB functions as the anchor on the cell wall for curli nanowires. It triggers the aggregation of CsgA and leads to the formation of amyloid nanowires. CsgC is positively involved in the extracellular aggregation of CsgA into amyloid nanowires (curli assembly) in E.coli functioning as a chaperone for CsgA. Constructs with different promoter strenghts were designed to investigate the impact on nanowire self-assembly.

Notes

We inserted non-coding scar sequences after the promoter and RBS to prevent missing initial codons during transcription/translation.

Source

The RBS and CsgC were synthesized from the genomic sequence of E.coli K-12 MG1655.
The promoter is part of the constitutive promoter family made by John Anderson from iGEM Berkeley 2006.Non-coding scar sites were designed at random.
