6His-P20 and Flag-Cry11Aa coding sequence
The Part BBa_K3788003 is a part composed with BBa_K3788002 (6his_p20) and BBa_K3788001 (Flag_cry11Aa). Both proteins are Bacillus thuringiensis proteins. Cry11Aa has a Flag tag in N-ter and P20 has a 6his tag in N-ter to allow purification of the proteins and specific detection by Western blot. The gene was optimised for E. coli K12.
To allow the expression in operon, an RBS sequence is added before the ATG of Flag_cry11Aa gene sequence.
Expected sizes :
| 6His-P20 | Flag-Cry11Aa | |
|---|---|---|
| Length of DNA sequence | 570 bp | 1956 bp |
| Protein size | 20 kDa | 70 kDa |
Mode of action of Cry toxins:
Cry toxins, in the form of a pro-toxin (inactive), will undergo proteolytic cleavage at their N-terminus end, allowing the unmasking of the zone of interaction with the receptor. Mature Cry toxins recognize glycoprotein-type receptors on the surface of midgut cells, more specifically the microvilli of the apical membranes. The II and III domains, forming 3 β-sheets, allow this interaction. Once recognized, domain I, forming 7 amphipathic α-helices, one of which is hydrophobic, is inserted into the membrane to allow the formation of the pre-pore. From this first step emerges the formation of Cry toxins oligomers and the formation of the pore. This allows ion leakage and cell lysis. Following this, an event cascade lead to sepsis resulting in the death of the insect
Cry11Aa has a toxic action, specific to A. aegypti because its -8 loop, region -4 and domain II loop 3 recognize the mosquito midgut BBMV receptor.
P20 chaperon and Cry11Aa toxin
Was discovered in B.thuringiensis, a p20 gene in operon with cry11Aa and <i<cyt1Aa</i>. Thus, the P20 protein was shown to be necessary for the formation of inclusion bodies of Cry11Aa and Cyt1Aa. P20 would allow a greater production of these toxins and allow their stability (Cyt1Aa would be protected from the proteolytic action before its maturation). The co-production of P20 and Cyt1Aa in E.coli would limit its toxic effects in the producer cell.
