InvA Expression Construct
Coding sequence for Invertase A (BBa_K901000) under the control of a LacI promoter with a sRBS (BBa_J04500).
This expression construct is part of a 3 enzyme system designed to enhance the production and secretion of monosaccharide sugars in Synechococcus elongatus. This system is comprised of InvA, Galu (BBa_K901007), and Glf (BBa_K901008).
GalU codes for UDP-glucose phosphorylase. This is an enzyme from E. coli that produces UDP-glucose. The presence of UDP-glucose enhances the native production of the disaccharide sucrose in S. elongatus in response to salt shock.
Sucrose is then cleaved into glucose and fructose by Invertase A and secreted from the cell via the membrane bound transport protein Glf (BBa_K901008). These monosaccharides are sufficient nutriment for E. coli and will be used to feed a culture of engineered cells designed to produce high levels of acetic acid.
