== Overview of the transduction part ==
 
-
'''Aim:'''
 
-
 
-
- to enable gene transcription after fusionning OMVs with the outer membrane of the receiving bacterium.
 
-
 
-
 
-
We also hope that we could achieve this aim without sacrifying important proprieties of our message : specific, repeatable , multidirectional.
 
-
It seems that we have two possible ways : the ABC transporters or the two component systems .
 
-
ABC transporters and two component systems are natural transport system (export or import) of information, nutriments or toxines.
 
-
 
-
 
-
 
-
There is another possibility but the mecanism is mostly unknown : the DNA-containing OMVs which could be a useful mean of information transport.

transport the protein directly into the cytolpasm to activate the transcription.

====A.3. Advantages/drawbacks====
+
-
 
+
-
advantages:
+
-
 
+
-
the protein of interest is directly translocated in the cytoplasm and if it is a transcription factor it could activated immediatly the response.
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
 
+
-
drawbacks:
+
-
 
+
-
It is a nutriment uptake system, so basically only small molecules are able to pass throught the membranes and it is a very specific.

====A.3. The TRICK====
+
-
 
+
-
Few ABC transporter such as FecABCD (iron transporter) are able to induce a response regardless of the tranlocation, due to the activity of FecA, some mutant can also have a constitutive expression of FecABCD . We could use FecA- mutant  receiver
+
-
and FecA+ mutant donor to transfert working FecA to the receiver. In this case the receiver will express the FecABCD operon, and so we could place under the control of the Fec ABCD promoter the gene sequence encoding for the response.

We have planned to explore three different method :

In most eubacteria, two-component proteins typically constitute *1% of encoded peptides. In

A typical TCS consists of a transmembrane dimeric sensor histidine kinase (HK) and a cytoplasmic cognate response regulator (RR).

Membrane fusion: Main


This part of the project was focus on a precise point

We have planned to explore three different method :


With the Jun/Fos dimere: Jun and Fos are able to form an heterodimer which has a high stability and Jun can dimerize with another Jun (thanks to their leucine zipper motif). After mutations into the leucine zipper motif of Jun (that allow the Jun/Fos dimerization but avoid the Jun/Jun homodimer formation), we wanted to fuse it to AIDA (an ABC transporter) to send them to the extern membrane of bacteria.


With G3P : The viral protein known as G3P is naturally exposed at the surface of the filamentous bacteriophage which enable it to get in the bacteria. The M13 phage has a high affinity for E.coli, and if we could place its G3p on the surface of the vesicles it could activate the fusion with the Outer membrane of the targeted bacteria.

In order to target the G3P at the surface of of the vesicles, we fuse it to the OmpA- Linker protein (created by the Warsaw team)


With the SNARE system: Intracellular membrane fusion in eukaryotes requires SNARE (soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive-factor attachment protein receptor) proteins that form complexes bridging the two membranes. To allow this fusion, the perfect conformation of all protein that composed the SNARE complex is an obligation. Untill now, no one cloned this complex into bacteria. We thought that it will be a very "dangerous way" to go for our project, so we decided to focus our effort on the Jun/Fos strategy and the G3P one.
