Sequences BBa_K648020_sequence (Version 1)

Description

This is a fast-acting reporter using the Xyle gene (BBa_K648011) fused to GFP. In its normal un-cleaved state the polymerization ability necessary for enzymatic action is inactivated. Once the fusion protein is cleaved by the RecA, which is activated by damaged DNA, the catechol-2,3-dioxygenase enzyme encoded by the Xyle gene is able to convert catechol to the bright yellow product 2-hydroxy-cis,cis-muconic semialdehyde. This reporter is able to produce a visible color response in a matter of minutes.

This version uses the RecA cleavage site (BBa_K648009) followed by the smallest of the three flexible fusion protein linkers (BBa_K648005). The linker is attached to the N-terminus of the Xyle gene.

Notes

All parts were assembled via standard 25 assembly methods.

The design of this part was inspired by the Imperial College London 2010 iGEM Team's Fast-Response module, part BBa_K316007.
