basic parts

  • Signal peptide

Part Name:
BBa_K157001
Description:
This sequence mediates transportation of the protein to a translocational pore by an RNA–multiprotein complex, the signal recognition particle (SRP) when fused to the n-terminus of a fusion protein with a transmembrane region[1]. There, after a pause of translation, the signal sequence is released and translation and translocation of the nascent chain are restarted[2].
Source:
Human EGFR (ErbB-1) signal sequence; originally mediating membrane integration of the EGF-receptor (ErbB-1). Sequence taken from UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot entry P00533.
Gene synthesis by ATG:biosynthetics, optimized for expression in homo sapiens by iGEM-Team Freiburg 2008.

  • Split-Fluo-Linker

Part Name:
Bba_K157009
description:
Originally, this linker was used for fusion to the N-terminus of the C-terminal half of split fluorophores: Protein interactions can be examined by BiFC[1] using complementary, non-fluorescent fragments of fluorophores[2]. Therefore, it is essential that the C-terminal fragment of the fluorophore is not restricted too much in its mobility. The linker allows orientation and adaption of the C-terminal fragment to the N-terminal fragment of the split fluorophore and, thus, the reassembly of a working fluorescent protein. It has already been used in BiFC assays and is known to serve this purpose well[3]; anyway, another, more flexible linker that could be used instead is our “GGGGS-linker” (Part Bba_K157010).
