 Description: pTYB1 is an E. coli cloning and expression vector (7477 bp) used in the IMPACT™ Protein Purification System which allows the overexpression of a target protein as a fusion to a self-cleavable affinity tag (1). This C-terminal fusion vector is designed for the in-frame insertion of a target gene into a polylinker upstream of an intein tag (the Sce VMA intein/chitin binding domain, 55 kDa) (1,2). This results in the fusion of the C-terminus of the target protein to the N-terminus of the intein tag. Thiol-induced self-cleavage of the intein releases the target protein from the chitin-bound intein tag, resulting in a single column purification of the target protein (1).
For fusion of the N-terminus of the target protein to the intein tag, use pTYB11 (NEB #N6901) or pTYB12 (NEB #N6902).
Source: pTYB1 is isolated from an E. coli strain (r-m-) by a standard plasmid purification procedure.
Advantages:- The NdeI site in the polylinker contains an ATG sequence for translation initiation.
- The SapI site is used for cloning the 3´ end of the target gene. This places the C-terminus of the target protein immediately adjacent to the intein cleavage site and results in the purification of a target protein without any extra vector-derived residues at its C-terminus.
Note: The SapI site is not regenerated after cloning. - Unique sites are indicated in bold.
- Expression of the fusion gene is under the control of an IPTG-inducible T7 promoter (3).
- Expression requires an E. coli host that carries the T7 RNA Polymerase gene [e.g., ER2566 BL21(DE3) and derivatives].
- A pBR322 derivative with a ColE1 replication origin.
- Ampicillin resistance.
- Origin of DNA replication from the bacteriophage M13 allows for the production of single-stranded DNA by helper phage superinfection of cells bearing the plasmid (M13K07 Helper Phage, NEB #N0315).
- T7 Universal Primer (NEB #S1248) and Mxe Intein Reverse II Primer (NEB #S1285) are available for sequencing the target gene.
- Companion vectors (pTYB2, pTYB3, pTYB4) differ only in the sites present in the polylinker.
- Other IMPACT vectors are available which allow for fusion of a target gene to N- or C- terminus of an intein. The cleavage reaction may be induced by thiol reagent or temperature/pH shift.
- Unique sites are indicated in bold.
- E. coli strain ER2566 is only available to purchasers of the IMPACT™ System or replacement vectors.
