The Hbif recombinase is a putative regulator of the Escherichia coli type 1 fimbriation system, capable of switching the fimS invertible region in the production of fimbriae in a manner similar to the better characterized FimB and FimE recombinases. Orientation control of the fimS switch by recombinases is specific to directionality, with Hbif catalysing the conversion of “OFF” oriented regions to “ON” oriented ones such that the fimS promoter is facing genes responsible for type 1 fimbriae production.

The hbiF gene was synthesized in vitro as device capable of opposing the directional inversion of the characterized fimE gene K137007 for the purpose of engineering bidirectional molecular switches. A synthetic circuit can be made by fusing two unique invertable repeats (IRs) recognized by the recombinase-parts K137008 and K137010, in that order- flanking a sequence of interest of 200-300bp and expressing hbiF or fimE in low-to-moderate levels to cause the sequence to invert:

 +
-<i>fimE </i>will cause a template strand between the IRs to face the upstream coding strand.
 +
 +
-<i>hbiF</i> will cause a coding strand between the IRs to face the downstream template strand.
 +
<br><br>
 +
Note that IRs’ initial orientation is FimE flippable, but not HbiF flippable.

<br><br>

This reaction can be characterized by digesting asymmetrical digest reporter K880001 with EcoRI and AgeI and determining the lengths of the resulting fragments.

<br><br>

Additionally, HbiF contains an RFC25 suffix and is capable of undergoing protein fusions to fluorescent proteins for quantification, affinity purification tags, or degradation tags such as K880004 to increase circuit responsiveness.

An important aspect of the iGEM competition is the use and creation of standard  biological parts. Each team will make new parts during iGEM and will place them in the [http://partsregistry.org Registry of Standard Biological Parts]. The iGEM software provides an easy way to present the parts your team has created . The "groupparts" tag will generate a table with all of the parts that your team adds to your team sandbox.  Note that if you want to document a part you need to document it on the [http://partsregistry.org Registry], not on your team wiki.
 
<br><br>
<br><br>
-
Remember that the goal of proper part documentation is to describe and define a part such that it can be used without a need to refer to the primary literature. The next iGEM team should be able to read your documentation and be able to use the part successfully. Also, you should provide proper references to acknowledge previous authors and to provide for  users who wish to know more.

The Hbif recombinase is a putative regulator of the Escherichia coli type 1 fimbriation system, capable of switching the fimS invertible region in the production of fimbriae in a manner similar to the better characterized FimB and FimE recombinases. Orientation control of the fimS switch by recombinases is specific to directionality, with Hbif catalysing the conversion of “OFF” oriented regions to “ON” oriented ones such that the fimS promoter is facing genes responsible for type 1 fimbriae production.

The hbiF gene was synthesized in vitro as device capable of opposing the directional inversion of the characterized fimE gene K137007 for the purpose of engineering bidirectional molecular switches. A synthetic circuit can be made by fusing two unique invertable repeats (IRs) recognized by the recombinase-parts K137008 and K137010, in that order- flanking a sequence of interest of 200-300bp and expressing hbiF or fimE in low-to-moderate levels to cause the sequence to invert:

-fimE will cause a template strand between the IRs to face the upstream coding strand. -hbiF will cause a coding strand between the IRs to face the downstream template strand.

Note that IRs’ initial orientation is FimE flippable, but not HbiF flippable.

This reaction can be characterized by digesting asymmetrical digest reporter K880001 with EcoRI and AgeI and determining the lengths of the resulting fragments.

Additionally, HbiF contains an RFC25 suffix and is capable of undergoing protein fusions to fluorescent proteins for quantification, affinity purification tags, or degradation tags such as K880004 to increase circuit responsiveness.
