Modular GPCR Constructs
In approaching our chemotaxis project, several G-protein coupled receptors were cultivated from multiple mammalian sources.
BBa_K631005 - NPY1R_Mus:The coding sequence for the NPY1R protein. This is a GPCR from Mus musculus.
BBa_K631006 - NPY1R_Rat:The coding sequence for the NPY1R protein from Rattus norvegius. This is also a GPCR .
BBa_K631007 - ADBR2: The coding sequence for ADBR2, a mouse GPCR that binds phenol (albuteroll). Length: 1257
BBa_K631009 - OX1R: Coding sequence for OX1R, a mouse GPCR that binds cholorobenzoic acid.
BBa_K631010 - MARM: Coding sequence for MARM1, a rat receptor that binds phenol (hydroquinone).
Composite Constructs
BBa_K631031 - ODR7:OX1R:UNC-54: A composite part designed to place the non-native OX1R into the neurons of the worm using the ODR-7 promoter for the ability to detect cholorobenzoic acid.
BBa_K631032 - ODR7:ADBR2:UNC-54: A composite part designed to place the non-native ADBR2 into the neurons of the worm using the ODR-7 promoter for the ability to detect phenol (albuteroll). Length: 3666
BBa_K631033 - GCY7:ADBR2:UNC-54: Another composite part with ADBR2, under the GCY7 promoter.
BBa_K631037 - GPC-1:eCFP:UNC-54: This is a composite part for our reporter system using cyano-fluorescent protein under the GPC-1 promoter. Length: 3787
BBa_K631034 - let858:RFP:UNC-54:This is a composite part for our reporter system using red fluorescent protein under the let858 promoter.
BBa_K631038 - GCY-7:eCFP:UNC-54: This is a composite part for our reporter system using cyano-fluorescent protein under the GCY-7 promoter.
BBa_K631039 - nahD: The coding sequence for the nahD protein, from pseudomonas peutida, capable of degrading napthalene. Expressing this in our worm may give it the ability to degrade naphthalene.
