We indeed observed intense red stains on the colonies with the pNagA promoter growing on NAG (as well as with the pNagP promoter, see part BBa_K1937006), albeit the expression is late and heterogeneous during the colonies development. Control (<i>B. subtilis</i> strains transformed with pSBBS0K-mini) , pSBBS0K-mini-NagA and pSBBS0K-mini-NagP transformed strains were spread on minimal medium with either glucose or NAG as carbon source. Red GFP spots appeared only with pNagA or pNagP on NAG (close-ups on section B of the figure).

Part: BBa_K1937007 (AF-A) (Chassis E. coli, carrier plasmid pSB1C3, part destined for use in Bacillus subtilis) Length: 1006 bp

Background: AF-A is a part designed to be combined with AF-B to form an operon of 5 antifungal peptides. The interest of using several antifungals is to have a broad spectrum of fungi target, because each antifungal has its own characteristics. The peptides were designed to be expressed and secreted by Bacillus subtilis. This operon was also initially designed to be expressed under the control of the pNagA or pNagP promoter (BBa_K1937003 and BBa_K1937005 respectively). In spite of several cloning strategies, the AF-B construction was not obtained, likely due to the toxicity of one of the peptides for Bacillus subtilis. This BioBrick is a part developed by the Toulouse 2016 iGEM team (http://2016.igem.org/Team:Toulouse_France).


This part: This part encodes two genes encoding antifungal peptides: a cutted Metchnikowin and the D4E1. We created it with the end of the Metchnikowin gene because we found out that only this part of the gene had the antifungal property (http://www.ebi.ac.uk/interpro/entry/IPR012513). The beginning of the gene translates for a propeptide. This gene comes from drosophila and translates a proline-rich peptide whose expression is immune-inducible. The peptide is active against fungi. The D4E1 gene is synthetic and translates a peptide that complexes with cholesterol, current in non-germinated conidia. This synthetic peptide is more resistant than the natural peptide CecroprineA because proteases from fungi have difficulties to degrade the synthetic one.(http://www.nrcresearchpress.com/doi/abs/10.1139/w98-032?journalCode=cjm#.V_pRgJOLT6Y).
So that each antifungal can be secreted out of the cell, it was necessary to add a sequence called AmyE that enables the transport of molecules outside of the cell. As AmyE is used twice in this Biobrick, we modified the AmyE sequences to avoid homologous recombination while keeping the same protein sequence. The NheI restriction site was added after the RBS to allow promoter swapping with biobrick Ba_K1937003 and BBa_K1937005). SacII and SalI restriction site were added to built the full 5 peptides operon.

Validation: The antifungal property was tested against Talaromyces funiculosus. Briefly, plates were evenly inoculated with the fungus and paper patches were added with either copper sulfate (positive control), water (negative control), Bacillus subtilis with pSBBs0K-mini (negative control, BBa_K1937001) or Bacillus subtilis with pSBBs0K-mini-AF-A (BBa_K1937008 obtained from subcloning the BBa_K1937007 part in the pSBBs0K-mini plasmid).

Light but reproducible inhibition halo were observed after 3 days and still present after 8 days only when the Bacillus subtilis strain carry the antifungal plasmid.
