M13K07 Genome Engineering Plans:

Gene Plans
I Change # of protein copies expressed to experiment with different sized channels
II Modify residues to allow deactivation of p2 under certain conditions so that replication of + strand can be regulated
III Insert myc to allow detection with an antibody
IV Change # of protein copies expressed to experiment with different sized channels
V Add fluorescent tag to monitor levels of p5-ssDNA complex
VI Modify residues to help p3 bind more effectively to the ToIA protein on the E. coli F pilus
VII Minimize the bulk of the protein to allow more room for modifications on p9
VIII Insert myc (as in III) or another tag to serve as a “hook” for attaching constructs to M13
IX Add residues to N-terminus to present on the outside of the phage coat
X Add sensitivity to different stimulus than that of p2 in order to regulate replication of + strand in another fashion
XI Modify residues to allow proteins other than p8 to embed in the membrane and serve as the phage filament coat
