Usage

smURFP (small ultra-red FP) is the most important part in our group. It is desirable for our in vivo imaging because with it molecule less light is scattered, absorbed, or re-emitted by endogenous biomolecules compared with cyan, green, yellow and orange FPs. smURFP can covalently attaches a biliverdin (BV) chromophore without a lyase, and has 642/670 nm excitation - emission peaks, a large extinction coefficient and quantum yield, and photostability comparable to that of eGFP. In order to make it expressed in bifidobacterium longum, we have made this sequence optimized. Besides, RBS III is used to construct the co-expression structure of smURFP and any protein linked behind RBS.

Biology

Bifidobacterium longum is a strictly anaerobic bacterium and there’s no oxygen in anaerobic bacteria, so the co- expression system won’t work, we choose the system of surface display. Our concept is proposed that the smURFP should be fused with an anchor sequence and displayed on the surface of a microbial cell so that they can be combined with BV. In our constructed plasmid the anchor sequence and our target protein smURFP is linked from the 5’ end side. In the 3’ end of the smURFP we added his-tag so that we can testify whether the smURFP is expressed or not by using confocal.
