ttpB-his-myc tag
ttpB-his-myc tag can interact with protein Vp0980 and Myc mouse antibody.
Biology
TTPB
TTPB is tail tubular protein B of podophage 7. It has been found that TTPB serves as ligands that recognizes the conserved Vibrio receptor Vp0980 to mediate phage adsorption. It binds with Vp0980 of Vibrio parahaemolyticus and then mediates phage adsorption and subsequent bacterial lysis(1).The his-tag (6×His) is added to C-terminal for protein purification.
Usage
In order to get the binding ability of purified Vp0980 to purified ttpB receptor, a Myc-tag was fused to the C-terminal of ttpB-his. We constructed this part on the expression vector pET-28a(+) by Gibson assembly, then transformed the plasmid into E. coli DH5α & E. coli BL21(DE3). The positive transformants were selected by kanamycin, colony PCR and sequencing.
Characterization
1. Agarose Gel Electrophoresis
After transforming the plasmid into E. coli BL21(DE3), colony PCR was used to verify that the plasmid was correct. The expected result was obtained (2546 bp).
Fig. 1 The result of colony PCR.
2. SDS-PAGE
The plasmid verified by sequencing was successfully transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3). After being cultivated and induced by IPTG, GE AKTA Prime Plus FPLC System was employed to get purified protein from the lysate supernatant. Purified protein was verified by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-12% (wt/vol) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and Coomassie blue staining. As shown in the gel image of ttpB-his-myc tag (Fig. 2), the target protein (87.6 kDa) could be observed at the position around 80 kDa on the purified protein lanes (FR).
