SuperNova is a photosensitizing protein, which produces Reaction Oxygen Species (superoxide and singlet oxygen) under irradiation of 500-600nm wavelength light. It is a monomeric version of another photosensitizing protein called KillerRed. There are several advantages over KillerRed, SuperNova does not oligomerize inside the cell and does not interfere with mitotic cell division. This advantage allows performing targeted protein inactivation inside the cell by fusion to the target protein without loss of target protein function. [1]

Membrane-bound SuperNova (for C. reinhardtii)

This is a membrane-bound version of SuperNova protein, originally introduced by iGEM 2014 Carnegie Mellon team. Link: BBa_K1491017

SuperNova is a photosensitizing protein, which produces Reaction Oxygen Species (superoxide and singlet oxygen) under irradiation of 500-600nm wavelength light. It is a monomeric version of another photosensitizing protein called KillerRed. There are several advantages over KillerRed, SuperNova does not oligomerize inside the cell and does not interfere with mitotic cell division. This advantage allows performing targeted protein inactivation inside the cell by fusion to the target protein without loss of target protein function. [1]

The second application that seems very simple and powerful is light controlled safety system. SuperNova can be utilized as a killer switch for genetically modified organisms. Under irradiation of 500-600nm wavelength light, SuperNova will generate ROS and kill the cell. Its phototoxicity was proven in bacterial and mammalian cells. [1]

In case of KillerRed, it was proven that membrane-bound version is more toxic and kills the cell more rapidly. [2]


[Improvement]

Codon optimized for C. reinhardtii.

SuperNova protein was made membrane-bound by adding 4 sequences:


1) Signal peptide from Peptidyl serine alpha-galactosyltransferase gene (SGT1) (1-26 aa) [3].

It correctly predicted by SignalP 4.1 server [4] (predicts signal peptides) (Figure 1):

Figure 1. Results of SignalP 4.1 server.

S score – probability of signal peptide Y score – probability of signal peptidase site C score – combined S and Y scores


2) (GGGGS)2 flexible linker (27-36 aa).

3) Transmembrane domain and C-terminus from SGT1 protein (37-74 aa). [3]

C-terminus was also added because it gave an optimal level of confidence in the presence of transmembrane domain both by TMHMM server 2.0 and Philius transmembrane prediction server.

Transmembrane domain and signal peptide were correctly predicted by TMHMM server v2.0 (predicts transmembrane domains) [5](Figure 2):

4) (EAAAK)2 rigid linker (75-84 aa).

Total signal peptide, transmembrane domain and linkers were predicted by TMHMM server v2.0 and Philius transmembrane prediction server [6] with high confidence values: Type confidence = 0.91 and topology confidence = 0.93 (Figure 3):

The Charmm-GUI membrane embedding code was used to embed this structure into a lipid bilayer composed of phospholipids and mono- and diacyl glycerols .

The following characterization is done by 2019 DUT_China_B

Characterization:
Culture engineered Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and wild algae to logarithmic phase at 25 ℃, with 5.9 klx continuous illumination, and 150 rpm. Inoculate the algae strains into TAP liquid medium respectively, with the initial concentration of the cells being 1.0 ×105 cells/mL. Detect the absorbance of algae cells at 750 nm every 12 h by microplate reader. The growth curve was plotted based on the absorbance-cell density curve, see protocol 2.

Figure 1. the absorbance-cells density curve of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii


We found that the cell growth of wild and engineered Chlamydomonas reinhardtii after illumination at 585 nm, 5.9 klx for 1 hour have no significant difference. It’s reported that C. reinhardtii cells generally cope very well with high rates of generation of superoxide, H2O2, and even singlet oxygen. The phototoxicity of supernova maybe weak in C. reinhardtii cells.
