SPYCatcher

Usage and Biology

SpyCatcher is a protein that came from the CnaB2 domain of FbaB, Streptococcus pyogenes(SpyCatcher:BBa_K1159200). In a natural environment, CnaB2 domain is used for attaching to host cells. In a paper, it is partially changed and divided into two domains.[1] Nowadays, these two protein domains are known as SpyCatcher/SpyTag system because they bind irreversibly with a covalent bond.

In our experiment, we used the SpyCatcher/SpyTag system and designed only SpyCatcher part for assay(SpyCatcher:BBa_K1159200, SpyTag:BBa_K1159201). In addition, this has two tag or cleavage sites. First is 6×His-tag inserted in the N-terminus of SpyC for protein purification. Second is a TEV protease site because, in the paper, it was used for protein purification[2]. However, we didn’t use it in our experiment.

We put it between the BamHI site and the Ndel site on pET11-a. We used BL21 (DE3) for gene expression. We used the Ni-NTA agarose for purification. After that, we confirmed the molecular weight of SpyCatcher by using SDS-PAGE.

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.

SDS-PAGE

Result

Fig. 10 Isopeptide bond formation between Plastic binding proteins and Encapsulin.
3µL of SpyCatcher-Plastic-binding protein (SpyC-PBP) solution and 3µL of SpyTag inserted TmEncapsulin (SpyTmEnc) solution was mixed, then placed for 16h at room temperature. Then 6µL of 2x SDS sample buffer was added. 10µL of each sample was loaded. SDS-PAGE for 30min in 200V. The gel was CBB stained.



Fig. Plastic-binding protein binding to PET film
A 3µL of protein solution dropped on PET film, then left for 20min. Then the film was washed in TBST for 5min x3, then placed with Anti-His-tag-HRP conjugated for 1h. ECL substrate was added, then chemiluminescence was imaged by LAS-3000. The exposure time is 6min.
Fig. 12 Quantification of conjugated band
Conjugated bands’ intensity was quantified with ImageJ. Orange dots show averages value of three experiments. Blacklines show standard deviations. The time point 60min was deleted because it includes negative value.
