These three proteins, commonly known as the S, R, and Rz genes, encode for cell lysis. The three genes packaged together are regularly called the “Cell Lysis Cassette.” The S gene is a holin and the R gene is an endolysin.

- | + | 2 BBa_k124014 – Received from Ry Young at Texas A&M. S105 is a mutant of the single S gene in the Cell Lysis Cassette. It’s purpose is to create a hole in the cellular membrane, hence the name “Holin.” This variation of the S gene induces lysis at a faster rate than the Wild Type. The length of time required for complete lysis is much shorter due to the deletion of the antiholin product, S107. The first 6 base pairs of the Wild Type sequence are the N-terminus residues of S107. S105 does not have these first 6 base pairs enabling it to be more efficient at membrane-permeabilizing activity. | |

The R and Rz genes are the same sequences as the R and Rz on pVJ4 (part BBa_k124003) received from the John Mekalanos' Lab. We used the Prefix primer of S105 and the Suffix Primer of PVJ4 to Biobrick the part. | |

The three genes packaged together are regularly called the “Cell Lysis Cassette.” The S gene is a holin and the R gene is an endolysin.
