Translation and Tethering (TnT) Plasmid

The TnT plasmid is a nucleic acid-based biosensor to test the specific impacts of translation control factors by microscopy.

Highlights:

  • Combination of the nascent chain tracking translation reporter and mRNA tethering reporters
  • Adaptable to any factor since tethering/recruitment is through a tethering cassette
  • Useful for screening translation as well as up/down regulation of proteins
  • Study translation factors as well as effects of subcellular localization

The "Translation and Tethering" TnT biosensor is a combination of the nascent chain tracking translation reporter and mRNA tethering reporters. The TnT biosensor is adaptable to any factor since tethering/recruitment is through a tethering cassette and not the endogenous RNA binding domain of a specific factor. TnT can be used to screen effects such as translation as well as up/down regulation of proteins. Additionally, TnT can be used to study translation factors as well as effects of subcellular localization on translation by tethering TnT mRNA to a specific location.
