Foire aux questions (FAQ)

What are the advantages and/or disadvantages of using TOP10, DH5α, or other cloning strains versus BL21 Star (DE3) or BL21 (DE3) cells for expression with the pTrc system?

Top10, DH5α, other cloning strains

Advantages:
- Saves time, can go directly from cloning to expression.
- The glycerol stock is more stable because these strains are endA- and recA-.

Disdvantages:
- If GOI is toxic, the cloning step can be difficult.
- These cloning strains are not protease-deficient; therefore, the protein may be degraded.

BL21 Star(DE3) or BL21 (DE3)

Advantages:
- These expression strains are protease-deficient.
- You have to transform the plasmid into an expression strain.
- The glycerol stock may be unstable because these expression strains are not endA- and recA-.
- The (DE3) part is wasted because the promoter does not need T7 RNA polymerase.

What competent cell strain can I use for expression with my pTrc Expression System?

The pTrc promoter is recognized by E. coli RNA polymerase, not T7 polymerase, and therefore can be expressed in any E. coli strain, not just BL21 strains. Therefore, you can use Top10, DH5α, etc. for expression. However, if your gene is toxic, the cloning step can be difficult as there is leakiness in expression.

How does glucose repress the pTrc promoter?

A transcriptional activator protein called CAP (catabolite activator protein) normally binds upstream of the trc promoter and activates transcription. This protein requires cAMP to bind the DNA. Adding glucose to the medium can reduce intracellular cAMP levels. Supplementing LB medium and agar plates with glucose will repress basal level transcription from the trc promoter. We recommend that you include 25 mM, 0.5% glucose in the selection medium to ensure stability of your insert.

What are the benefits of the pTrc expression system?

The pTrc promoter in the pTrc system is a strong hybrid promoter composed of the -35 region of the trp promoter and the -10 region of the lacUV5 promoter/operator. Expression of pTrc is repressed by the LacI protein and induced by IPTG.

Do I need to include a ribosomal binding site (RBS/Shine Dalgarno sequence) or Kozak sequence when I clone my gene of interest?

ATG is often sufficient for efficient translation initiation although it depends upon the gene of interest. The best advice is to keep the native start site found in the cDNA unless one knows that it is not functionally ideal. If concerned about expression, it is advisable to test two constructs, one with the native start site and the other with a Shine Dalgarno sequence/RBS or consensus Kozak sequence (ACCAUGG), as the case may be. In general, all expression vectors that have an N-terminal fusion will already have a RBS or initiation site for translation.

Abstract
Metaxin is a component of a preprotein import complex in the outer membrane of the mammalian mitochondrion.

Journal:J Biol Chem
PubMed ID:9045676
'Metaxin, a novel gene located between the glucocerebrosidase and thrombospondin 3 genes in the mouse, is essential for survival of the postimplantation mouse embryo. In this study, the subcellular location, domain structure, and biochemical function of metaxin were investigated. Anti-recombinant metaxin antibodies recognized 35- and 70- kDa proteins in mitochondria ... More
Dual DNA binding specificity of ADD1/SREBP1 controlled by a single amino acid in the basic helix-loop-helix domain.

'Adipocyte determination- and differentiation-dependent factor 1 (ADD1), a member of the basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) family of transcription factors, has been associated with both adipocyte differentiation and cholesterol homeostasis (in which case it has been termed SREBP1). Using PCR-amplified binding analysis, we demonstrate that ADD1/SREBP1 has dual DNA sequence specificity, binding ... More

Ca2+/calmodulin binds to and modulates P/Q-type calcium channels [see comments]
Authors:Lee A, Wong ST, Gallagher D, Li B, Storm DR, Scheuer T, Catterall WA
Journal:Nature
PubMed ID:10335845
'Neurotransmitter release at many central synapses is initiated by an influx of calcium ions through P/Q-type calcium channels, which are densely localized in nerve terminals. Because neurotransmitter release is proportional to the fourth power of calcium concentration, regulation of its entry can profoundly influence neurotransmission. N- and P/Q-type calcium channels ... More
