Tag

Part:BBa_K2255003

Designed by: Camille Garcia   Group: iGEM17_Aix-Marseille   (2017-08-28)


Multi-Tag (Rfc 25)

This tag provides multiple fixation sites: a Strep-tag [1] and a histidine tag. Between those tag is a TEV protease cutting site [2].

This part was designed with the Freiburg (Rfc25) extension. Thus, it contains the restriction sites NgoMIV and AgeI that are compatible and allow the absence of a start and stop codon, which ease the assembly of multiple protein domain.

Usage and Biology

This part is usefull in our to purify the enzyme that use to disrupt the biofilm. Check out our [http://2017.igem.org/Team:Aix-Marseille/DEPS enzyme design page] to know more about our project.

GFP purification with a Ni column

A)Loading sample. B)Unbound. C)Elution.

Purification of [sfGFP] fusionned with this tag (BBa_K2255003), with the [Ni-NTA Spin Kit] (Quiagen). As you can see, mainly sfGFP is present after elution and most of the protein weren't bound. Thus, the his-tag of this part is functionnal.

In our [http://2017.igem.org/Team:Aix-Marseille/DEPS project], we wanted to purify the EPS Depolymerase for its use in our cure. Thank to this tag, we will be able to successfully purify our protein with a single Ni column and this will enable us to use the EPS Depolymerase as we wanted and test its activity.
