Usage and Biology
The PmrCAB of Salmonella is a system that can be stimulated and induced by exogenous metal ions. The main functions are executed by three parts, the transmembrane protein PmrB, the intracellular protein PmrA, and the promoter PmrC. In wild-type Salmonella, it can adsorbs extracellular Fe3+, and phosphorylates protein PmrA. Then the phosphorylated PmrA will bind on the promoter PmrC to initiate expression.
The expression product of PmrA is an intracellular protein which can be actived during phosphorylation by protein kinase at the C-terminus of PmrB. Phosphorylated PmrA is able to bind on the promoter PmrC and initiate its downstream genes’ expression.
Molecular cloning
Using E. coli to extract our plasmids. Through designed primers, we have obtained different high copies linearized fragments from our plasmids by PCR. These fragments are then connected together by homologous recombination to form a complete plasmid. After transformed into E. coli, colony PCR was applied for confirmation. Then we go for extracting plasmids again.
Finally we transformed our recombinant plasmids into E. coli BL21(DE3) competent cells. Correct as checked by colony PCR.
