Description
-IRR K137008 + Sequence with AgeI cut-site K165006 + IRL K137010(MI262)
-Asymmetrically digestible reporter to assay the activity of FimE K137007 and HbiF K880000 recombinases.
K880001 is a utility for characterizing the functionality of fim based recombinases such as FimB, FimE, and HbiF and consists of K137008 and K137010 flanking a ???junk??? DNA sequence K165006 containing an off-center AgeI restriction site proximal to the BioBrick prefix; inversion of the fragment will cause the site to move towards the suffix.
Digestion of the unflipped reporter with EcoRI and AgeI will yield a ~70bp fragment when in a FimE-flippable orientation and a ~220bp fragment when in an HbiF flippable orientation. Alternatively, digestion with AgeI and PstI will yield fragments of roughly opposite orientation. The reporter in the registry sequence is FimE flippable.
