PSI:Biology-materials repository: a biologist’s resource for protein expression plasmids

Abstract: The Protein Structure Initiative:Biology-Materials Repository (PSI:Biology-MR; MR; http://psimr.asu.edu) sequence-verifies, annotates, stores, and distributes the protein expression plasmids and vectors created by the Protein Structure Initiative (PSI). The MR has developed an informatics and sample processing pipeline that manages this process for thousands of samples per month from nearly a dozen PSI centers. DNASU (http://dnasu.asu.edu), a freely searchable database, stores the plasmid annotations, which in… Show more

“…Assuming current trends, ∼55% coverage will be achieved within 15 y, a level considered sufficient to fully characterize the metabolic network of an organism. These efforts are complemented by nine centers focused on membrane protein structure determination, as well as additional resources for data tracking and dissemination (www.sbkb.org) (13) and a materials repository (14).…”

“…The gene encoding NaLdcA was amplified by PCR from N. aromaticivorans DSM 12444 genomic DNA by using Pfu Turbo DNA polymerase (Stratagene) and I-PIPE (insert) primers that included sequences for the predicted 5= and 3= ends. The Joint Center for Structural Genomics (JCSG) NaLdcA expression plasmid was deposited in the PSI Biology Materials Repository (DNASU ID NaCD00087837) (21). The expression vector pSpeedET, which encodes an amino-terminal tobacco etch virus (TEV) protease-cleavable expression and purification tag (MGSDKIHH HHHHENLYFQ/G), was PCR amplified with V-PIPE (vector) primers (forward primer, 5=-TAACGCGACTTAATTAACTCGTTTAAACGGTC TCCAGC-3=; and reverse primer, 5=-GCCCTGGAAGTACAGGTTTTCG TGATGATGATGATGATG-3=).…”

“…Originally established at the Harvard Institute of Proteomics in 2006 as the PlasmID Repository, the repository moved and re-established itself at ASU in 2009 as DNASU. [7][8][9] The overall goal and mission of DNASU (https://dnasu.org) is to facilitate research by providing high quality, annotated plasmids and resources to the research community and to support research scientists by functioning as a centralized facility to distribute plasmids that they create as part of their research. 9 Plasmids are circular pieces of DNA, each of which contains one or multiple genes, and serve as a useful experimental resource to have stored in and distributed by a centralized repository.…”

“…For example, the National Institute of General Medical Sciences (NIGMS) funded DNASU for 10 years to function at the PSI-MR. [7][8][9] Within this collaboration, DNASU evaluated the full-length DNA sequence of the gene inserts for over 90,000 plasmids from PSI researchers and significantly improved the DNASU website and database to support the distribution of these plasmids. In addition, DNASU was awarded an American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) grant to enable the purchase of a Brooks automated freezer storage system.…”
