Butyryl-CoA:acetate CoA-transferase


Usage & Biology

This composite part consists of RBS , a coding region ( ButCoAT ) and enables E.coli to secrete ButCoAT.

ButCoAT is an enzyme (Butyryl-CoA:acetate CoA-transferase) (EC 2.8.3.8) (Uniprot:C7GB37) which converts Acetyl-CoA (Acetyl-CoA is readily present in the cytosol and it can be directly converted into Butyrate) into Butyrate and can be found in Roseburia intestinalis L1-82. The equation of the reaction (acyl-CoA:acetate CoA-transferase) is given down below :

Our protein coding region (ButCoaT)is digested from our whole construct with the enzymes PstI and Xbal.

We have loaded an uncut version of K2052015 next to an EcoRI single digested one. In the third lane RBS ligated ButCoat (K2052018) was loaded with its single digested version. Digested ones gave a sharp lane at 3600 bp as we expected.

Flowcytometry Result

After checking with confirmational PCR we have tried to validate RFP fluoresence experimenttaly through Fluorescence Microscope, Here you can see the analysis.

Figure 6. After measuring RFP signals with channel FL3 we have obtained these graphs. Here again upper triplet stand for Mock(reference point) analysis that is the bacterial culture transformed with only ButCoaT. Middle triplet stand for only RFP expressed bacterial culture analysis which gave a peak that could be used as a control group. The bottom triplet was RFP tagged ButCoaT expressed bacterial group and as we have shown there is any signal depend on RFP activity.


Since ButCoAT was tagged with RFP, to test whether it is functional or not, we have used fluoresence microscopy technique to show its expression is properly done or not. However, because ButCoAT doesn’t have a stop codon at the end it fused with RFP and they both become unfunctional from this fusion. Therefore, we could not see any peak.
