Description
Standard RBS expressing MS2 Coat protein ribozyme affinity purification (RAP). This part utilizes the expression of C-terminal 6X His tagged fusion MS2 coat protein under a T7 promoter and a standard shine dalgarno sequence for expression of MS2. Downstream there is a T7 promoter followed by a theophylline ribozyme and a MS2 apatamer at the 3' end. Co-expression of the two modules results in MS2 binding to the 3' end of the theophylline ribozyme transcript allowing for the MS2-RNA purification by nickel affinity chromatography. The RNA can be eluted from the complex by the addition of theophylline.
Notes
We had to consider MS2 expression levels relative to the theophylline ribozyme transcript and assessed how this affects total RNA yield. In order to test this we developed a second part with depressed MS2 expression (BBa_K1791002)
