BBa_K196000 1 ccdA CcdA antidote with the mob promoter (reverse) 2009-08-10T11:00:00Z 2015-05-08T01:11:17Z This part comes from the StabyTM plasmid, designed by Delphi Genetics (www.delphigenetics.com). Stabilization system : Higher plasmid stability = More proteins Principle: In the StabyExpressTM system, the antidote gene (ccdA) is introduced in the plasmid DNA under the control of a weak constitutive promoter : the mob promoter, which doesn???t come from E. coli but from a broad host range plasmid (pBHR1) . On the other hand, the toxic gene (ccdB) is introduced in the chromosome of the bacteria, which can be furnished by DelphiGenetics. Expression of the poison gene is under the control of a promoter strongly repressed in the presence of the plasmid. When the plasmid is lost, the antidote is degraded and the production of the toxin is induced, causing cell death. Practically this means that when during the pre-induction phase bacteria are grown, 100% of the bacteria will carry the vector. If they lose the vector, they will not obtain a growth advantage, but will die. Upon induction 100% of the bacteria will start producing the recombinant protein leading to higher yields of the target protein and less background caused by unwanted proteins. For manufacturers of recombinant proteins this system offers a great benefit because it is an antibiotic free expression system. Therefore the manufactured protein will also be free of traces of antibiotics.

In order to leave the possibility to use it in both ways, we also designed this part in the forward way. false Laetitia Warny annotation2017201 1 putative RBS range2017201 1 227 231 annotation2016492 1 ccdA range2016492 1 1 219 annotation2017200 1 mob (putative) range2017200 1 303 308 annotation2016493 1 mob (putative) range2016493 1 323 328 BBa_K196000_sequence 1 tcaccagtccctgttctcgtcagcaaaagagccgttcatttcaataaaccgggcgacctcagccatcccttcctgattttccgctttccagcgttcggcacgcagacgacgggcttcattctgcatggttgtgcttaccagaccggagatattgacatcgtatgccttgagcaactgatagctgtcgctgtcaactgtcactgtaatacgctgcttcatgcctgcccctcccttttggtgtccaaccggctcgacgggggcagcgcaaggcggtgcctccggcgggccactcaatgcttgagtatactcactagactttgcttcgcaaagtcgtgaccgcctacggcggctgcggcgccctacgggcttgctctccgggcttcgccctgcgcggtcgctgcgctcccttgccagcccgtggatatgtggacgatggccgcgagcggccaccggctggctcgcttcgctcggcccgtggaca igem2sbol 1 iGEM to SBOL conversion Conversion of the iGEM parts registry to SBOL2.1 Chris J.
