Catalog for regulatory RNAs

Over the years, the number of regulatory RNAs in Part Registry has steadily increased over time and many has been made available to end users. Based on different mode actions and natures of regulatory RNAs, they can be grouped into different categories. However, the Part Registry currently does not have a catalog page, categorizing methods or guidelines to organize and curate existing regulatory RNAs. Some of them are grouped under type "RNA", while others are not. This is not useful for looking up and utilizing them.Over the years, the number of non-coding RNAs in Part Registry has increased steadily over time and many have been made available to end users. More than 400 entries in the Part Registry are related to RNA devices (updated 25-12-2014). Based on different mode of actions and natures of non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), they can be grouped under different categories. However, the Part Registry currently does not have a catalog page, categorizing methods or guidelines to organize and curate existing ncRNAs. Some of them are simply grouped under type "RNA", while others are not. This is not useful for looking up and utilizing them. For example, BBa_K145013, which is a part for antisense LuxI, could be used to add an extra layer of control to the widely utilized quorum sensing Lux pathway but it has not been extensively reused. It is likely that Part Registry users are unaware of its existence because there has yet to be an information hub for ncRNA.

We would like to solve this problem by designing a list of category tags as well as a guideline, so that automated display of non-coding RNAs by the function can be facilitated. By doing so, we hope that we can assist other users to find and use those parts efficiently. Ultimately we want to facilitate the implementation of the philosophy of Part Registry, which is to get and give (and share), through a better organization of ncRNA parts in the registry.

This page was written in compliance with Part Registry's format for general Catalog Pages. Currently, the information is uploaded manually because we have yet to submit our suggestions to iGEM HQ. Upon approval, we will tag existing regulatory RNAs and complete the page. Being part of the cross-cohort "Project Riboregulator", the page is far from complete and is expected to take shape by Summer 2015. We welcome and encourage constant update and adoption of this page in the future.


For more information on categorized ncRNAs on this page, please refer to A Guideline for Categorization of non-coding RNA In Part Registry.

Riboregulator

Riboregulators regulate translation by two elements: a cis-repressive sequence upstream of RBS, and a trans-activating RNA. In absence of the latter, the cis-repressive sequence promotes formation of a hairpin at the RBS. With the RBS locked up, translation cannot take place.. Trans-activating RNA, when introduced, can form complementary bases to cis-repressive sequence, promotes disassembly of the hairpin, and expose the RBS for ribosomal binding, allowing translation to occur.

RNA Aptamer

A RNA aptamer can fold into a tertiary confirmation that binds with strong affinity and high specificity to small molecules through non-Watson-Crick base pairing.

Designer Part Number Description

CRISPR

CRISPR/Cas RNAs are guiding RNAs that direct Cas proteins to their spacers. They can be a 2-subunit RNA comprising CRISPR RNA (crRNA) and trans-acting crRNA (tracrRNA). They can also be a single guide RNA by fusing the above 2 functional domains together through RNA linkers. They associate with Cas proteins or their derivatives and guide them to DNA containing complementary sequence to crRNA./p>

Designer Part Number Description

RNA-IN / RNA-OUT

RNA-IN RNA-OUT regulates translation on the RNA level. RNA-IN is located upstream of RBS whereas RNA-OUT is a small ncRNA which is form complementary base-pairing with RNA-IN. In the presence of the RNA-OUT, RNA-IN will hybridize with RNA-OUT and block the RBS and the start codon, with the RBS locked up, translation cannot take place.

Designer Part Number Description

RNA interference (RNAi)

Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and micro RNAs (miRNAs) function through the RNA interference (RNAi) pathway. siRNAs are usually produced by "dicing" exogenous, long double stranded RNA into 21-nucleotides small fragments. Whereas miRNAs usually have an endogenous origin and started as hairpin transcripts. Processed siRNAs or miRNAs associates with Argonaute in the RNA-induced silencing complex (RISC). The complex then search for RNA targets using the siRNA/miRNA, and in most cases degrades the latter, resulting in inhibition or reduction of gene expression.

Designer Part Number Description

Riboswitch

A riboswitch is a segment on the mRNA that has the ability to detect small molecules or temperatures, and regulates gene expression in an A riboswitch is a segment on the mRNA that has the ability to detect small molecules or temperatures, and regulates gene expression in an on or off manner. Riboswitches usually contain sensor domains that bind small molecules and regulatory domains that regulate gene regulation. Riboswitches are therefore also aptamers in nature. Upon binding of a suitable ligand in the sensor domain, riboswitches undergo conformational changes that can lead to different outcomes like translation inhibition or mRNA degradation. on or off manner. Riboswitches usually contain sensor domains for binding of small molecules and regulatory domains for gene regulation. Riboswitches are therefore also aptamers in nature. Upon binding of a suitable ligand in the sensor domain, riboswitches undergo conformational changes that can lead to different outcomes like translation inhibition or mRNA degradation.

Designer Part Number Description

Ribozyme

A ribozyme is a RNA molecule with intrinsic catalytic activity, which are usually cleavage or ligation activities.

Designer Part Number Description

Aptazyme

RNA aptazymes, as the name suggests, are RNAs that carry properties o both aptamers and ribozymes. They are capable of sensing small molecules. Ribozyme-mediated cleavage is triggered upon ligand binding.

• For a part to be qualified as an apatazyme, the aptamer domain and the ribozyme domain should be functionally coupled. A RNA that contains aptamer domains and ribozyme domains without functional relationships is merely a composite RNA device.

Designer Part Number Description

pT181

The pT181-RNAI is a special class of ncRNAs derived from elements in the Staphylococcus aureus pathogenicity plasmid pT181. A specific 5’ UTR region would normally form an anti-termination loop. pT181-RNAI, when introduced, induces formation of a premature terminator loop instead, which results in early termination an incompletely transcribed mRNA.
