Design Notes

We decided to fuse SpyTag to the N-terminal of a truncated version of Intimin as this has been previously proven to function effectively for cell surface display of up to 30kDa passenger proteins (Wentzel et al., 2001). We also included a linker between Intimin and SpyTag to facilitate mobility of SpyTag on the cell surface. Blue light inducible promoter was designed by Jayaraman P. et al. (2016)

Source

Intimin protein sequence obtained from UniProtKB: [http://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P43261#sequences P43261], reverse translated and codon optimised for E. coli. Intimin for the cell surface display of our tag was truncated according to Wentzel et al., 2001. SpyTag was obtained from: BBa_K1159201. The DNA sequence was synthesised by Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT)
