OUR TEAM:::SUMMARY ::: BACKGROUND ::: STRATEGY ::: CONSTRUCTS ::: RESULTS ::: ONGOING WORK

Constructs

Saccharomyces cerevisiae is widely used for baking and brewing, a versatile eukaryotic model system, and particularly useful for synthesizing metabolites under fermentation conditions. The microaerobic conditions of fermentation impede the oxidation of sensitive bioreactive compounds and are optimal for the de novo synthesis of resveratrol. To achieve our project goals and expand the yeast synthetic biology toolbox, we have constructed BioBricks encoding 3 yeast promoters, 3 yeast terminators, a 2-micron origin of replication, 2 selectable markers, 2 metabolic enzymes, and a yeast integration plasmid. We have also submitted two additional parts representing foundational tools, including a gene encoding an amber suppressed RFP biobrick for screening of SupF+ (Amber suppressor) genotype and an amber suppressor tRNA biobrick.

Additional Bacterial Parts


Novel Zero Leak Inverter ([http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K122007 K122007] and [http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K122006 K122006])

Amber Suppressor tRNA
[http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K122007 K122007] The supF construct, an amber suppressor tRNA, allows for read-through at native amber (TAG) stop codons. Charges with tyrosine. 211
[http://partsregistry.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K122006 K122006] Point Mutation of RFP(13521) with incorporation of an amber stop codon at the native tyrosine required for fluorophore maturation. 923



Through incorporation of amber stop codons or point mutations of tyrosine codons (TAC) to TAG within the coding region, a genetic circuit can be used to add an additional level of regulation and determine whether a full protein or partial peptide with be synthesized. This design has high signal-to-noise ratio, with virtually no leaky expression.




Arfp.jpg

The Amber suppressed Red Florescent Protein (ARFP) has no virtually expression in SupF- (2) cells while visually apparent levels of red pigment is present in SupF+ cells (4). ARFP expression was compared against wtRFP expression in both cell types (1 and 3).
