Design considerations

Our design aims to utilize the ice nucleation protein InaK to display the Im7 protein on the surface of Escherichia coli Nissle1917(EcN) cells, that is, to express the InaK-linker-Im7 system on the cell membrane surface. Initially, we employed the Escherichia coli gene editing plasmid system pKD46 to integrate the T7 RNA polymerase gene, which is controlled by the lac-uv5 promoter, into the attB site of the EcN genome. Consequently, we successfully constructed an EcN strain that is compatible with the pET expression system. We then constructed a fusion protein expression plasmid for the ice nucleation protein InaK with Im7 (pET23a-InaK-Im7),introduced it into the engineered EcN strain, and induced protein expression with IPTG. Ultimately, the successful expression of the InaK-Im7 fusion protein was confirmed by SDS-PAGE electrophoresis (Figure 1).

Lanes 1, 3, 5: Pre-induction; Lanes 2, 4, 6: Post-induction with IPTG.
It can be seen that the purified protein concentration and purity are high, and the obtained InaK-Im7 fusion protein can be used for subsequent binding with CL7-sfGFP fusion protein and fluorescence confocal experiments to verify the construction of the membrane surface display system(For details, refer to the engineering section of our wiki).

Source

The InaK is an ice nucleated protein from Pseudomonas syringae KCTC1832.
The linker is composed of Gly and Ser.
The Im7 is an immune protein derived from E. coli.
The source of the composite parts is artificially constructed plasmids(pET23a-InaK-Im7).
