We added a SpyTag sequence which fused after <i>csgA</i> gene, creating <i>csgA-spytag</i> (BBa_K2684006). With SpyTag, CotA laccase can be fixed onto the biofilm by forming a covalent bond SpyTag-SpyCatcher.</p>

CsgA is a kind of amyloid protein that could form biofilm in E. coli cells. We fused SpyTag domain after gene CsgA (previous part: BBa_K1583000), forming CsgA-SpyTag (Improved Part: BBa_K2684006). By utilizing the steady isopeptide bond combination ability of the SpyTag-SpyCatcher system and the biofilm forming amyloid protein, it is possible to fix any SpyChatcher fused protein domains to the biofilm.
Gene <i>csgA</i> found in the genome of MG1655 wild type is capable of forming biofilm. Using CRISPR, we knocked out gene <i>csgA</i> on MG1655’s genome creating ΔMG1655 strain. The cell ΔMG1655 would then be used as chassis cell. Gene <i>csgA</i> was fused into plasmid pET28a.</p>

Demonstration

CsgA is a kind of amyloid protein that could form biofilm in E. coli cells. We fused SpyTag domain after gene CsgA (previous part: BBa_K1583000), forming CsgA-SpyTag (Improved Part: BBa_K2684006). By utilizing the steady isopeptide bond combination ability of the SpyTag-SpyCatcher system and the biofilm forming amyloid protein, it is possible to fix any SpyChatcher fused protein domains to the biofilm.

Demonstration

CsgA and CsgA-SpyTag were both cloned into the plasmid of pET28a for further improvement assay. We transferred both part in to ΔCsgA-MG1655 cells as two groups and incubate them till OD≈0.6. Both groups were centrifuged. We used a reaction stock containing SpyCatcher-sfGFP protein, of which the florescence was measured, to react with the palette of the two groups. We allow the reaction undergo 1 hours. After that, we centrifuged both groups again and measure the florescence of the supernatant. The amount of florescence the supernatant decreased indicates how much SpyCatcher-sfGFP protein the palette fixed.

There’s a significant difference between the two groups. Thus, our CgsA-SpyTag is functional whenconbining with proetin fused wity SpyCatcher domain.
