GST -> SPYCatcher -> Hydrophobin

Usage and Biology

Hydrophobin is a protein from Bacillus subtilis. In this paper, it shows that they self-assemble and get hydrophobic region[1]. OLS_Canmore_Canada team from iGEM tried to improve efficiency of the to degrade plastic (improve the ability to degrade plastic which PETase has.)

We wanted to know if hydrophobin can bind to PET by themselves. We put SpyCatcher on N-terminus of hydrophobin because we used SpyTag/SpyCatcher system to bind hydrophobin to other parts. Also, according to the paper which shows how to purify hydrophobins, they add GST, so we used the pGEX-6P-1whose backbone is GST as a vector too[1].

This part has three tags. First is 6×His-tag inserted in the N-terminus of SpyC for protein purification. Second is MYC-tag inserted between sfGFP and SpyCatcher to detect it by using the antibody. Third is a TEV protease site and we put it between Spy-C and 6xHis-tag because it was used for protein purification in the paper[2].

We inserted it in the C-terminal of GST on the pGEX-6P-1.We used BL21 (DE3) for gene expression. We used Ni-NTA Agarose for purification. After that, we confirmed the molecular weight of hydrophobin by using SDS-PAGE. The result is shown below.

Purification


Expression

  • Cells were grown in 200ml LB media (100μg/ml Ampicillin) at 37oC shaking at 140 rpm to an OD600 of 0.5, verifying via a spectrophotometer.
  • Protein was expressed in 0.1mM IPTG for 2hours.
