Ice Nucleation Protein fused to Streptavidin Alive

Introduction

It is a fusion protein between an Ice Nucleation Protein (INP) and Streptavidin Alive made by Gibson Assembly. INP is an outer membrane protein found in the genome of Pseudomonas syringae, that is recognized by the E.coli protein secretion machinery, and thus also exported in that organism.

Usage and Biology

This part was designed to express streptavidin on the outer membrane of E.coli in order to attach biotinylated nanoparticles to the cells.
Thus, it can be used in any experiment involving biotin-streptavidin affinity (attachment of cargo is one example, but we could also think of purification etc...).

-What it is : INP sequence fused with Streptavidin Alive by gibson assembly.
-The INP-streptavidin construct expresses streptavidin at the outer membrane of E.Coli. INP is an outer membrane protein foud in the genome of Pseudomonas syringae. It is under the control of Lac promoter and thus is constitutively expressed in E.Coli.
-The expression of this plasmid was tested by transforming cells and looking for microscopy at either of a fluorescent antibody again streptavidin or a fluorescent biotin (biotin and streptavidin have a strong affinity).

-For us, the idea was to attach nanoparticles covered with biotin, using the strong affinity between both, but any experience implying biotin can be considered.
