Existing part from NCTU-Formosa in 2015:

Improved part by Mingdao in 2016:

Lpp and OmpA are outer membrane proteins of E. coli. Lpp-OmpA (LO) hybrid can direct heterologous proteins to bacterial cell surface. In 2015, NCTU-Formosa used it to display scFv (single chain fragment variable) antibodies on the surface of E. coli. They found that a fusion protein cannot be possible to be created under the standard BioBrick assembly rule, that is EcoRI(E)-XbaI(X)-GENE-SpeI(S)-PstI(P). The A part of EX-LO-SP and the B part of EX-scFV-SP, for example, are connected by cutting and ligation of SpeI plus PstI for the A part and XbaI plus PstI for the B part. The SCAR generated by XbaI/SpeI (ACTAGA) will form a stop codon just in front of the ATG start codon of the scFV protein of the B part. This situation has been officially mentioned by the [http://openwetware.org/wiki/The_BioBricks_Foundation:BBFRFC15#Limitations_of_Standard_Assembly BioBrick standard assembly].

Therefore, in 2015, NCTU-Formosa created a novel part (BBa_K1694002) putting NcoI site between the LO part and SpeI site. However, when considering cloning, we found that an extra NcoI site is present on Cm resistance gene making it difficult be a vector for gene cloning.

In 2016, Mingdao improved the part by replacing NcoI site with BamHI site (BBa_K1991004). Also, we’ve confirmed and [http://2016.igem.org/Team:Mingdao/Proof prove] the function of LO directing a fusion protein to the cell surface with enzyme activity in our project.
