CIII

Inhibitor of Ftsh( ATP-dependent host metalloprotease).


The CIII protein encoded by the temperate coliphage lambda acts as an inhibitor of the ubiquitous Escherichia coli metalloprotease HflB (FtsH). This inhibition results in the stabilization of transcription factor lambda CII, thereby helping the phage to lysogenize the host bacterium.

Protein&protein reaction

We had submitted and documented RBS-CIII-RBS-CIII-RBS-CII-TT-pRE-RBS-GFP-LVAssrAtag (BBa_K2036014) and RBS-CII-RBS-CII-RBS-CII-TT-pRE-RBS-GFP-LVAssrAtag (BBa_K2036015). These two parts were to test whether CIII can protect CII from being degraded by Ftsh by competitive inhibition.


Fig1: According to the flourescence measurement curve above, we can see clearly that GFP level of CIII test circuit increasedover time and it showed significant difference from two control groups. It indicates that tandemly expressed CIII can efficiently protect CII from being degraded by Ftsh.
