Secretion Model 1:
Click on an individual part for more information.
INPNC:
The
ice-nucleation protein (INP) from Pseudomonas syringae is used
by its
natural host to nucleate ice formation and is implicated in
P.syringae-associated pathogenesis. INP, as well as a
truncated derivative
lacking
the central domain (INPNC), have been used extensively for displaying
proteins
on the surface of E. coli (7). For instance, AldO and
PhaZ1 have
been successfully displayed on the surface of E. coli using
INPNC (7,
15).
OmpA: OmpA
is a protein found on the outer membrane of E. coli (13) and
is used
as a displaying fusion protein on the cell surface. This part has
already been
documented on the parts registry; however, it has not been tested as a
component
of a secretion system (via fusion with a target protein linked with a
cleavable
signal sequence).
Note: “It has remained essentially unknown how proteins of E. coli
outer
membrane are sorted and incorporated into this membrane” (10)
For more information go to:
BBa_K103006
RBS: Ribosome
Binding site number 32 (BBa_J61132) from the registry is being used in
our
secretion system.
For more information go to: BBa_J61132
Terminator: We are
using BBa_B0015, a double terminator, as our terminator in both our
secretion
and pH system.
For more information go to: BBa_B0015
GFP: We are
using Green Fluorescent Protein as a reporter that also serves as a
small
protein in testing our secretion system.
For more informaiton go to: BBa_K265003
Luciferase: Luciferase
is a firefly protein that also fluoresces, so it serves as a reporter
as well
as a testable large protein.
For more information go to: BBa_1712019
LacI: This is an
inducible promoter which was found in the part registry.
For more information go to:
BBa_R0010
SS: The
signal sequence (SS) for the phaZ1 gene product of Paucimonas
lemoignei, a polyhydroxybutyrate depolymerase (15). In the
native
protein the signal sequence is cleaved between residues Ala37 and
Leu38.
Park et al. have showed that the fusion of the complete phaZ1
gene
(including SS) and a truncated ice nucleation protein from Pseudomonas
syringae (BBa_K265008), could lead
to stable
expression and secretion of the phaZ1 gene product.
6-His Tag: The 6-Histidine Tag serves as a tag for
Western Blotting if our fluorescent reporters are not expressed as
highly as we
would like.
Note: We are using this tag just in case the GFP or Luciferase
do not
work under a plate reader.
