CcsCohesin
a cohesin module is from CbpA
Usage and Biology
It is from CbpA (314-723 amino acids, GenBank Accession number:L08665), and have the property to automatically assemble with a dockerin module from C.thermocellum CelS. In our project, we use Synthetic Protein Scaffolds to improve the efficiency of enzyme catalytic reaction. This cohensin module is a part of Synthetic Protein Scaffolds. It can automatically assemble with a dockerin module named CcsDock which is from endoglucanase EngE of C.cellulovorans.

Characterization from UESTC-China 2021
We use this cohesin domain from C.cellulovorans, which is part of our scaffold protein, to connected with CcsDockerin domain, and ultimately anchor our cellulase and xylanase to the cell surface of Pichia pastoris to improve efficiency of deink. Because we chose Pichia pastoris as the chassis organism, we have done codon optimized for yeast expression, and our part number is BBa_K3819000.

- Figure 2. Amino acid squence alignment of CcsCohesin from iGEM16_NWPU and UESTC-China
The two figures above show that the amino acid sequence of the two parts are the same but the gene sequence is not completely the same.
We finally successfully express the cohesin domain, as a myc tag has been linked, we can observe its expression as the following results of Dot-Blot analysis.
