Description
This part codes for a portion of the scaffoldin protein (cipA) from Clostridium thermocellum cellulosome. Two regions of cipA were ligated together to form this part: three type one cohesin regions and a type two dockerin region. A signaling peptide for export of the protein out of the cell is also coded in this part.
This part is unfinished; it contains 6 pst1 sites within its coding sequence.
Notes
The size of the original genomic sequence from Clostridium thermocellum was reduced from 7kb to ~1kb.
Source
This part was isolated from the cipA scaffoldin from Clostridium thermocellum. Two sets of primers were used - one to isolate the type 2 dockerin region (MiniA2) and another to isolate three type-one cohesin regions and a signaling peptide for export of the protein out of the cell (MiniA1). Therefore, this part does not have the cellulose binding region of C. thermocellum's cellulosome or 6 of the type one cohesin regions. This decreased the nucleotide sequence from 7kb to ~1kb.
