Rhamose inducible sfGFP with HlyA secretion tag

sfGFP BBa_K4244004 was fused to HlyA BBa_K554002 (fused at the C-terminus) to secrete sfGFP and use it as an extracellular reporter. It is under an inducible promoter BBa_K914003. For better titration using BBa_K914003 we introduced the plasmid in a Δ rhaB,Δ rhaT strain [1].

Secretion assay

Figure 1: End point measurement of total, pellet and supernatant fraction of sfGFP under the HlyA signal peptide expressed with rhamnose inducible promoter. Measurement was performed 5 hours after rhamnose induction at 500 μM. No significant fluorescence was detected in the supernatant fraction.

Discussion

No secretion was observed in Escherichia coli Nissle 1917. This experiment still needs adjustment and fine tuning to prove the secretion of sfGFP.
