Description
Leucine zippers are one of the most common protein-binding motifs. The gene codes for an alpha helix that contains a high amount of leucine residues. This alpha helix can interact with another leucine zipper and dimerize. This interaction has been thoroughly characterized and confirmed as a good control. The leucine zipper here is bound to the T25 subunit of the BACTH system and can be used as a control for the T18 and T25 interactions.
Notes
We did not have to change anything during the design procedure for this sequence.
