Abstract
This year, Jilin_China made a RNA-based thermosensor toolkit for users, which includes four types of RNA-based thermosensors: heat-inducible, heat-repressible, cold-inducible and cold-repressible RNA-based thermosensors. But due to the numbers of cold-inducible RNA-based thermosensors is less than 10, which can't meet the number requirement(more than 10) of collection, we added three types of collections to the parts registry as follows:
heat-inducible RNA-based thermosensor collection, heat-repressible RNA-based thermosensor collection and cold-repressible RNA-based thermosensor collection.
In order to make it easier for users to select an appropriate RNA-based thermosensor, we also developed a search engine for our toolkit, you can click here to enter the search engine page.
The introduction of each type of part collection is as follows:
-
Heat-inducible RNA-based thermosensor collection
In this collection, we provide a total of 48 different Heat-inducible RNA-based thermosensors, which can regulate the expression of genes with the changed temperature. The RNA-based thermosensors we designed has been characterized and mathematically fitted to prove that they have different melting temperature, expression intensity and sensitivity. Users can choose the appropriate RNA-based thermosensors according to their own needs.
Heat-inducible RNA-based thermosensor collection contains these parts:

In order to make our RNA-based thermosensor toolkit more suitable for users' needs, we updated the toolkit to version 2.0. We added the RNase E-based heat-repressible RNA-based thermosensors, including 23 different thermosensors. The stem-loop structure of the thermosensor contains the RNase E cleavage site. At the elevated temperature, the cleavage site is exposed, and the mRNA will be degraded, which turns the translation off.

To expand the melting temprerature range of the thermosenor, we have made a second upgrade to the toolkit. In toolkit 3.0, we added cold-repressible and cold-inducible RNA thermosenor, and made 8 cold-inducible RNA-based thermosensors into the part collection.

To expand the melting temprerature range of the thermosenor, we have made a second upgrade to the toolkit. In toolkit 3.0, we added cold-repressible and cold-inducible RNA thermosenor, and made 10 cold-repressible RNA-based thermosensors into a part collection.
Cold-repressible RNA-based thermosensor is based on the RNase III. The stem-loop of the thermosensor mRNA contains the recognition and cleavage site of RNase III. When the temperature is lower than the melting temperature, the RNase III will degrade the mRNA.
