Design Notes

Fabric Binding Domain 10 was fused downstream in the 5' end of the GFP CDS
FBD 10 was a positive control obtained from literature. This 7 amino acid sequence was obtained by the phage display technique. They screened for small peptide ligands that selectively bind to the Cellulose nano whiskers and a consensus peptide sequence of “WHWRAWY” was found to efficiently bind cellulose. A linker was introduced in the DNA sequence between FBD10 and the CDS of GFP.
His-tag is added in the C-terminal for protein purification
The sequence was codon optimized for E. coli and restriction sites for the restriction enzymes BpiI, BsaI and BsmBI were avoided. The sequence was confirmed by sequencing and no mutations were observed. The construction was done by Golden Gate technique using BsaI as restriction enzyme to obtain the desired cohesive ends.
