FimH+sfGFP at residue 225
The literature has shown that the terminal pili protein FimH (Le Trong et al 2010) can be modified by inserting heterologous sequences at position 225 and 258 (Pallesen et al 1995, Shembri et al 1999). However these two amino acids are in the pilin binding domain which may present difficulties when attempting to introduce large modifications. Harvard iGEM 2015 also introduced modifications at position 225 of the mature FimH protein.
CDS which codes for a FimH protein fused with a sfGFP at residue 225 after cleavage of the signal peptide. This part tests expression and folding of FimH when modified by a large protein at position 225, after signal peptide cleavage. This part is included in the composite part https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K2324011 under the T7 promoter, as well as https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K2324006 under the pRha promoter.
