Demonstration
Fig1.1: CsgA-SpyTag
CsgA is a amyloid protein which is a dominant component of the biofilms of E. coli. We fused a functional peptide domain SpyTag with 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 , it is possible to fix different SpyChatcher-fusing proteins, like enzymes or receptors, to the biofilm to introduce a variety of artificial functions.

Verification- Using sfGFP-SpyCatche
We used sfGFP-SpyCatcher as indicator to measure the amount of sfGFP-SpyCatcher protein our CsgA-SpyTag biofilm could capture. The decrease of florescence of the supernatant indicates how much sfGFP-SpyCatcher protein the biofilm gain.
There’s a significant difference between the two groups. Thus, our CsgA-SpyTag successfully fixed sfGFP-CatCher protein.
Verification- Using SpyCatcher-CotA
We used SpyCatcher-CotA Protein, laccase with SpyCatcher, to fix on to our CsgA-SpyTag biofilm. We used ABTS as indicator to measure the laccase activity of the biofilm after the fixing process as a whole. If our CsgA-SpyTag biofilm has laccase activity, that means the fixing process of SpyCatcher and SpyTag is successful.
As the **** shows, there is significant difference between CsgA and CsgA-Spytag in enzyme activity when combining with SpyCatcher-CotA
In our experiments, we give CsgA a new ability, which is capturing all fusion protein with SpyCatcher, by adding SpyTag domain after CsgA. We test SpyTag using sfGFP-SpyCatcher and SpyCatcher-CotA. We also proved that fusion protein is still functional after fixed to the biofilm.
