4 Multi Cloning Site (MCS) of paid1.1-n Restriction sites shown in MCS (EcoRV-EcoRI-PvuI-MluI-ScaI) are unique and suitable for cloning of the gene of interest. Description: paid1.1-n Vector encodes both the F-box TIR1 protein and a 25-kD degron (AID degron). When cloned in frame, your protein of interest would be expressed as a fusion protein with the degron at amino (N) terminus. Both TIR1 containing 9 repeats of Myc tag (TIR1-9Myc) and the fusion genes are driven from the immediate early promoter of cytomegalovirus (CMV prom) as a bicistronic mrna, the 3 terminus of which is processed by the poly-adenylation signal from the SV40 T antigen. The internal ribosome binding sequence (IRES) permits translation of the aid fused protein. The plasmid also contains an SV40 origin (SV40 ori) for replication in cells expressing the SV40 T antigen. For selection of E. coli and mammalian cells, the vector contains a kanamycin/neomycin-resistance cassette which confers resistance to kanamycin and G418, respectively. paid1.1-n Vector also contains both puc origin of replication for propagation in E. coli and an f1 origin for single-stranded DNA replication.

For efficient expression of the fusin protein of interest, the gene should be in flame with the ATG codon shown above.

6 Description: paid1.1-c Vector encodes both the F-box TIR1 protein and a 25-kD degron (AID degron). When cloned in frame, your protein of interest would be expressed as a fusion protein with the degron at carboxy (C) terminus. Both TIR1 containing 9 repeats of Myc tag (TIR1-9Myc) and the fusion genes are driven from the immediate early promoter of cytomegalovirus (CMV prom) as a bicistronic mrna, the 3 terminus of which is processed by the poly-adenylation signal from the SV40 T antigen.

10 FQA about AID System Q1. Can any proteins be depleted by using the AID system? A1. Any proteins in cytoplasm and nucleus can be depleted by AID system. In the case of membrane proteins, however, aid-tag is required to be exposed inside of cytoplasm or nucleus because the aid-tag is the target of poly-ubiquitylation by the auxin-dependent manner. Proteins existing inside of mitochondoria can not be depleted by the AID system because there are no ubiquitin ligases in mitochondoria. nucleus aid Tag aid Tag Poly-ubiquitylation Rapid degradation by proteasomes Q2. Why can the AID system degrade target proteins so rapidly? A2. Because cells introduced the AID system sustains high ubiquitin ligase activity by constitutive expression of TIR1, aid-tag targeted ubiqutylation occurs as soon as aid-tagged proteins are expressed. Q3. Does not such high activity of ubiquitin ligase influence other endogeneous proteins? A3. Because ubiquitin ligase activity via TIR1 and anxin is highly specific to the aid-tag sequence, we expected that the TIR1/anxin dependent ubiquitin ligase activity had no influence to endogeneous proteins. As a matter of fact, our observation indicated no significant changes in expression level of other proteins. Q4. Which should we choose N-aid vector or C-aid vector? A4. We provide two vectors in order to fuse the aid-tag to N-terminus (N-aid) and C-terminus (C-aid) of a target protein of interest. You can choose a proper vector in

11 case you observe some influences to characters of the tagged protein. Q5. Is there something different between auxin (IAA) provided by BioROIS and one available from other providers? A5. We provide auxin with stabilized status. But it requires storage at -20 C. Q6. What does AID system differ from widely used Tet On/OFF systems? A6. Because Tet ON/OFF systems control transcription level, depletion time of the target protein depends on stability of remaining mrna. However, AID system degrades the tagged-target protein itself very rapidly. Q7. Can we use in vivo systems introduced AID system? A7. Although many scientists request us in vivo systems, efforts to establish them are being undertaken. Q8. What research fields can the AID system be applied to? A8. We consider this system can be applicable to relations between gene functions and cell proliferation and development. In particular, it would be very useful for research fields such as oncology, aging, central nerve systems, infectious diseases, development of cells including ES and ips cells and so on.
