Golden Gate Assembly

Preparation for “Golden Gate Assembly

  • Design of primers for PCR

There are some rules in designing primers for PCR, when you make primers to get PCR productions for “Golden Gate Assembly”. Firstly you have to design them as you can add an adapter, which includes BsaI recognition site and BsaI restriction site, to PCR productions. (The BsaI recognition sequence "GGTCTC" is separated from its four bp overhang by a single bp, and BsaI  activity is independent of the sequences of the single bp spacer and the four bp overhang.) Secondly you need to design primers as any two parts in a bin are completely interchangeable with respect to Golden Gate assembly, and only a single pair of oligos is required for each part across the entire assembly.

Golden Gate Assembly Protocol

  • Add 100 ng of the linearized vector backbone and equimolar amounts of the other assembly pieces to a 15 µl total volume assembly reaction mixture as follows:
linearized vector backboneeach additional assembly piece10x NEB T4 Buffer100x BSABsaINEB T4 Ligase, 2 million cohesive end units / mLdH2O
100 ngto equimolar with backbone1.5 µl0.15 µl1µl1 µlto 15µl
NOTE: It is essential to use a High Concentration Ligase
BsaI is only 10% active at 37 C without the addition of BSA.
  • Perform the assembly reaction in a thermocycler as follows:

either (following Engler 2009):
3 min @ 37 C }
4 min @ 16 C } 25 cycles
5 min @ 50 C }
5 min @ 80 C } 1 cycle

  • Transform 5 µl of the assembly reaction into 100 µl of competent E. coli and/or run a diagnostic agarose gel to check for successful assembly.

RBS-TorA (BBa_K797002)

Construction of RBS-TorA

This part is coding N-terminal TorA signal region with RBS. Proteins conjugated TorA signal are recognized by Tat secretion pathway and they are secreted from cytoplasm to periplasm while maintaining their holdings. This comes from the part with the enzyme of TMAO reductase. This part includes RBS so that you don't bother to insert new RBS between this signal and your promoter.

Plasmid Backbone for golden gate assembly(BBa_ K797013)

This backbone is suitable for golden gate assembly. Golden gate assembly is a suitable assembly to combine many parts in order you want. This plasmid backbone has restriction enzyme cleavage site of Dpn1, let you build construction by Golden gate assembly in one ligation.

We conducted Golden gate assembly by ourselves and confirmed this part has the restriction cite and restriction enzyme cutting site of Bsa1. Please see detail on Experiment page of this part.
