The autotransporter secretion system
Only Receptors that are exposed to the outside of E. coli can catch the virus. E.coli is a gram-negative bacterium that has an inner membrane and an outer membrane, and a periplasmic space between the inner and outer membranes. Because of this, we need the autotransporter secretion system to construct our receptor proteins on E. coli 's surface.
We chose to implement two different autotransporter mechanisms (OmpA and C-IgAP) because we wanted to test and compare their secretion abilities. We suspected that the C-IgAP system is more efficient than the OmpA system.

We used an existing BioBrick part: [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_K103006 BBa_K103006] (iGEM08_Warsaw). The part contains Lpp, OmpA and a linker, so right after the linker, we can fuse with our receptor.

Lpp: Lipoprotein signal peptide
When fused with another protein downstream, the signal peptide should anchor the protein to the outer membrane of E. coli, facing the periplasmic space.
OmpA: Outer membrane protein A
Five transmembrane domains of OmpA, crossing the outer membrane of E. coli, forming a barrel shape.

PelB-(receptor)-C_IgAP
- Proteins secreted by Gram-negative bacteria must cross the lipid bilayers of the inner (IM) and outer (OM) membranes as well as the periplasmic space containing the peptidoglycan layer. Insertion of the β-domain into the OM precedes translocation of the passenger protein.

PelB: pelB leader sequence
A sequence of amino acids which when attached to a protein, directs the protein to the periplasmic membrane of E. coli, where the sequence is removed by pelB peptidase.

C-IgAP: Carboxy-terminal (β-) domain of Immunoglobulin A1 (IgA1) proteases1

- C-IgAP [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_J32018 BBa_J32018]
- The mechanism autotransporters, has been examined using a single-chain antibody (scFv) as a reporter passenger domain to monitor the translocation process. Fusion of a scFv to the IgA protease allowed us to investigate the passage of the chimeric protein through the periplasm, its insertion into the outer membrane and the movement of the N-terminal moiety towards the cell surface. The binding activity of the scFv to its target antigen entirely rely on the formation of disulphide bonds.
- The leader sequence of C-IgAP is cleaved at the membrane by a signal peptidase, releasing the mature polyprotein into the periplasm. When in the periplasm, the beta-domain of the protein inserts into the outer membrane to form a beta-barrel structure. After formation of the beta-barrel pore, the passenger domain is translocated to the cell surface through the pore. Once at the cell surface, several possibilities may occur:
- the protein remains intact as a large polyprotein that has a carboxy-terminal membrane-bound domain and an aminoterminal domain extending into the environment.
- the protein either gains autoproteolytic activity and cleaves itself or it is cleaved by an outer membrane protease, but in this case the passenger domain remains in contact with the cell surface via noncovalent interactions with the b-domain.
- the passenger domain gains its autoproteolytic activity or is cleaved by an outer membrane protease and is released into the environment.

But this part is not exist in plate. We need to PCR this sequence from Neisseria gonorrhoeae by ourself.
