Sequences BBa_M34543_sequence (Version 1)

Description

TIMP-1 gene under control of a promoter with an export signal sequence and a terminator sequence. This part causes a yeast cell to secrete the human TIMP-1 gene to inhibit matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs).

Notes

We wanted to use a signal sequence which exported the greatest amount of the TIMP-1 protein, so we chose the alpha F sequence over others. We also chose to use yeast as a chassis because TIMP-1 is a human gene and yeast would be able to glycosylate it. However, yeast glycosylate the protein in a manner that is slightly different than in humans.

Source

The human TIMP-1 gene is located on the X chromosome.
For the terminator sequence: pOBD2.
Promoter is from the Parts Registry (Part BBa_I766556)
Signal Sequence Source: http://peds.oxfordjournals.org/content/11/2/75.full.pdf (use alpha F sequence)
