BBa_K541027 1 BBa_K541027 Reflectin 1A (LipA) and LALF (LipA) protein for B.subtilis 2011-07-18T11:00:00Z 2015-05-08T01:12:38Z LALF from horseshoe crab, Reflectin from Cephalopod and promoter-RBS from B.subtilis Reflectin is a self-assembling protein that has the ability to reflect the sun light which depends on the thickness of the protein layer. Therefore, we thought that this ability could be used as a novel reporter for B.subtilis and E.coli. On the other hand, Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), or endotoxin, is the major mediator of septic shock, a serious complication of Gram-negative bacterial infections in humans. Molecules that bind LPS and neutralize its biological effects or enhance its clearance could have important clinical applications. Limulus anti-LPS factor (LALF) binds LPS tightly, and, in animal models, reduces mortality when administered before or after LPS challenge or bacterial infection. The wedge- shaped molecule has a striking charge distribution and amphipathicity that suggest how it can insert into membranes. The binding site for LPS probably involves an extended amphipathic loop, and it has been proposed that two mammalian LPS-binding proteins will have a similar loop. The amphipathic loop structure may be used in the design of molecules with therapeutic properties against septic shock. false false _708_ 0 9573 9 Not in stock false Optimized for B.subtilis false Mustafa Elitok BBa_K541027_sequence 1 aattttgtcaaaataattttattgacaacgtcttattaacgttgatataatttaaattttatttgacaaaaatgggctcgtgttgtacaataaatgttactagagaaaggtggtgaatactagatgaaatttgtgaaaagacgcattattgcactggttacaattctgatgctgtcagttacatcactgtttgcactgcaaccgtcagcaaaagcagcagaacattactagatgaatcgctttatgaatcgctatcgcccgatgttcaataatatgtactctaacatgtaccgtggccgctaccgcggtatgatggaaccgatgagccgcatgactatggactttcagggccgctacatggacagccaaggccgcatggtggacccgcgctactacgattactacggccgcttcaacgattacgaccgctactatggccgcagcatgttcaactatggctggatgatggacggcgatcgctacaaccgctataaccgctggatggattacccggagcgctacatggatatgtctggctaccagatggatatgtctggccgctggatggatatgcagggccgccactgcaacccgtattctcagtggatgatgtacaactacaaccgccatggctactacccgaactactcttacggccgccacatgttttatccggaacgctggatggacatgtctaactactctatggacatgtatggccgctatatggatcgctggggccgctactgtaacccgttttctcagtacatgaactactacggccgctactggaactacccgggctacaataattactactattctcgcaacatgtattacccggaacgctactttgacatgtctaactggcagatggacatgcaaggccgctggatggacaaccagggccgctattgttccccgtactggaacaactggtacggccgccatatgtactacccgtaccagaacaactacttctacggccgctatgactacccgggcatggactattccaactaccaaatggacatgcagggccgctacatggaccagtacggcatgaacgactactactattaataatactagagaattttgtcaaaataattttattgacaacgtcttattaacgttgatataatttaaattttatttgacaaaaatgggctcgtgttgtacaataaatgttactagagaaaggtggtgaatactagatgaaatttgtgaaaagacgcattattgcactggttacaattctgatgctgtcagttacatcactgtttgcactgcaaccgtcagcaaaagcagcagaacattactagatggatggaatttggacacaactgatttttaccctggtgaagaaccttgctacactttggcaatccggcgattttcagttccttgaccatgaatgccattaccgtattaaacctacgtttagacgcttgaagtggaagtataaaggaaaattttggtgcccgtcttggaccagcattactggacgtgcgacaaagtcatcacgctccggtgccgtcgaacattcggtccgaaattttgttgggcaagcgaagtcgtcaggcctgataacgcaaagacaagcggaacagtttattagtcaatacaattaataa igem2sbol 1 iGEM to SBOL conversion Conversion of the iGEM parts registry to SBOL2.1 Chris J.
