                     <p> In order to make yeast be capable of detecting dioxins in the environment, we designed the circuit above. TEF is the constitutive promoter which can activate downstream sequences to express dual domain protein, namely, lexA-DBD/mDR83-805. mDR83-805 can express dioxin receptor hsp90. And after it combining intracellular dissociative dioxin, it will pass through karyotheca and combine with cyc1 promoter to activate the expression of green fluorescent protein downstream. Then we can know by observation whether there is dioxin in the environment or not.</p>

<p>Considering the amount of dioxin in the environment is in micro level or even trace level, when the concentration of dioxin decreases, those who can successfully combine with hsp90 and then nucleic DNA will be less. Thus, we added a feedback control to amplify the signal intensity.

We replaced TEF constitutive promoter by galactose induced promoter. mDR83-805 has also been modified. Its sequence of dioxin receptor was eliminated. When it is stimulated by galactose in the environment, the circuit will express the hsp90 without the ability to combine dioxin. This circuit has no integrated hsp90 which can unite with dioxin so that it will not be affected by dioxin. It is especially for testing whether LexA-DBD can still penetrate the nuclear membrane and combine with DNA and activate downstream sequences without signal of dioxin.

DIOXIN DETECTIVE

DIOXIN SENSOR

AhR RECEPTOR

AhR(arylhydrocarbon receptor)是在生命体内的二恶英及其类似物的结合受体,它能在二恶英的诱导下,通过膜转运与生物体内DNA相关序列结合,促使下游xenobiotic metabolizing enzymes(XMEs) 家族中的 CYP1A1 gene 表达,从而对生物体代谢进行不同程度的调控。 其具体的调控方式如图~所示,In the absence of ligand, AhR is present in the cytosol in a complex with Hsp90, XAP2 and p23 proteins. Upon binding to a ligand, the AhR complex translocates into the nucleus and the AhR dissociates from Hsp90 complex to form a heterodimer with its partner molecule, Arnt. Thus, the formed AhR/Arnt heterodimer recognizes an enhancer DNA element designated xenobiotic responsive element (XRE) sequence located in the promoter region of CYP1A1gene, resulting in the enhanced expression of the gene[1].

Reference:[1] Functional role of AhR in the expression of toxic effects by TCDD

lexA DBD/Mdr

小鼠的AHR蛋白是由805个氨基酸序列组成,其中如图所示,包含bHLH (basic helix – loop – helix)、 PAS (Per – Arnt– Sim) domain、(A and B) PAS A and B repeats Q-rich (glutamine rich) region,其中PAS domain能够在hsp90存在的情况下与目标物质dioxin及其类似物结合并在ANRT的帮助下通过bHLH序列与DNA结合,诱导下游基因的表达。我们用lexA DBD蛋白将AHR的第1-82位的氨基酸换掉,使得融合的蛋白质能够与下游基因的增强子lexAoperator相结合,出发cyc1 promoter对下游黄色荧光蛋白的表达。从而使融合蛋白能够在酵母中起到对二噁英的检测功能。

MEMORY SYSTEM

Here we add a rational design of cellular memory in yeast that employs autoregulatory transcriptional positive feedback .我们在表达的上述由二噁英诱导的黄色荧光蛋白后融合了lexAop及mdr521-805这段DNA绑定的辅助序列。通过这段基因序列的改造,装置在探测到二噁英分子后,就能快速大量的表达黄色荧光蛋白,并且由于正反馈的作用,当二噁英不存在后,装置仍能稳定的表达黄色荧光蛋白,实现了信号增强及记忆的功能。
