Favorite composite part

BNP-AR185 T2A eGFP-polyA

For this year’s iGEM competition, our favorite composite part is BNP-AR185-polyA.This part is composed of BNP promotor, AR185 linked with eGFP by T2A and poly A.

How BNP-AR185-polyA works

As has shown presiously, BNP promoter activity is related to the severity of heart failure. So we want to use ET-1, one stimulus factor, to imitate the environment of heart failure and induce BNP promoter expression. Then, the later sequence of the part, AR185, also can be expressed and fuction what it could specifically bind to RyR2 in rat cardiomyocytes and have the ability to inhibit PKA dependent S2808 phosphorylation in vitro.
