Part:BBa_K3796008
capABC for gamma-PGA synthesis
This composite part contains three coding sequences, capA,capB,capC, which are joined upstream and downstream of the promoter P0864+RBS and T7 terminator, respectively. It is used for the synthesis and extracellular transport of gamma-polyglutamic acid.
Usage and Biology
This composite part is used to synthesize γ-polyglutamic-acid, and capA, capB and capC genes must be used altogether. When they are expressed together, they may be able to synthesize polyglutamic acid. Three genes can be placed downstream of the same promoter and upstream of the same terminator, or placed separately. capABC gene is a gene cluster widely contained in Bacillus sp., which is also named pgsBCA gene cluster. capABC gene cluster can be used to synthesize γ-Polyglutamic acid(γ-PGA) with L-type or D-type glutamate as raw material. Gene capA has catalytic activity and capB has transport activity. The proteins encoded by these three genes work together and can synthesize γ- PGA and transport it to vitro in the form of capsule or free.
