M13 phage re-engineering ideas:
Gene | Ideas |
---|---|
I | Modify such that it is able to interact with multiple p4s and see how phage secretion changes (this would affect the effectiveness of the channels). |
II | modify such that it not only nicks the double stranded form of the genome to initiate replication of the + strand, but also nicks the - strand to impede the formation of dsDNA (this would also help g5). Care should be taken when modifying because this is also linked to g10. |
III | Add myc or other tag to monitor how it affects time delay/progression of phage escape from host |
IV | modify to increase its affinity for p1 and p11--this would possibly increase the effectiveness of the channels |
V | Modify such that it is able to sequester the positive stranded DNA more effectively, thus reducing the competition with dsDNA formation |
VI | As an accessory protein to p3, modify such that p3 is more effective in its interaction with TolA protein |
VII | Modify in such a way to allow for phage secretion speed to increase so the phage-host interaction time is decreased. |
VIII | Add myc or alternative tag to possibly aid in targeting various qualities of host |
IX | Same principle as gene VII except that care must be taken with this modification because it overlaps with gene 8. |
X | Modify such that + strands are not dependent on the presense of g10. This would work in conjuction with our modification of g2 (since they are linked). |
XI | same as p1 |
