Usage

Cell surface display is a technique to express the enzymes on the outer membrane of the carrier cells. This technique can exclude the process of protein purification which enormously reduced the cost, at the same time, easier to be reuse as the whole cell biocatalyst can be recycled by simple centrifugation.

In our design, we use Bacillus subtilis [1] as the carrier bacteria. mLCC has the optimal temperature at 70 degrees, which is not a durable temperature for most of the bacteria carriers. Bacillus Subtilis as the carrier cell has a short reproduction period and also has higher thermostability and adaptability toward basic environments [2]. Thus, we aim to surface display mLCC on Bacillus Subtilis to build a whole-cell catalyst.

Anchor protein is a surface-exposed coat component that has the purpose of displaying protein at the spore surface on the bacteria cells, function as an anchoring motif, support the attachment for the fused protein and chassis. We selected a well-studied anchor proteins by looking up references, namely CotG[4]. By constructing the CotG-linker-mLCC, the PET degradation efficiency will be enhanced.

Biology

Anchor protein is a surface-exposed coat component [3] that has the purpose of displaying protein at the spore surface on the bacteria cells, function as an anchoring motif, support the attachment for the fused protein and chassis. We selected a well-studied anchor proteins by looking up references, namely CotG[4].

Design Consideration

The construct was cloned into a pHT43 plasmid and transformed into B.subtilis BS168

The construction includes:

1.CotG is fused with mLCC at the NT with a GS linker(GGGGSGGGGS)

2.A flag-tag is added at the C-terminal to provide conditions for the use of fluorescence to detect the target protein after it is displayed on the cell surface.
