In this part, we aims at constructing a molecular cloning vector with a cos site which enables it to be packaged into the gene therapy vector- in other words, to construct a cosmid. In order to detect the expression of the therapeutic DNA, we construct this cosmid based on the scanfold of Parts-J61031 encoding a RFP-expressing segment.

This cosmid mainly consists of the following segments:

1) origin of replication: we insert O gene and P gene from bacteriophage lambda into J61031, which are resoonsible for the late phase replication and package of the wild type circular bacteriophage lambda genome

Three modules in our project

Based on our basic idea and decoupling principle of synthetic biology, we subdivided our project into three interconnected modules: 1) Synthesis of the GenSniper virion which involves the synthesis of the GenSniper genome and the production of the viroin; 2) Constructing the Therapeutic DNA which can be packaged into the GenSniper virion; 3) Construction and characterization of the targeted BioBrick that is responsible for targeted gene delivery. The following wetlab work will demonstrate the synthesis of the GenSniper via the three modules respectively as well as how they work together.
