Later, we introduced lactase-cotA as our indicator. Laccase will only react with a specific substrate---ABTS. As we encode laccase into the cell, it will produce laccase along with Lcp. Since ABTS is filled into the LB, it will react with laccase that produced by the cell and soon be oxidized, turning into the color of bullish-green. Therefore, by using laccase, we will be allowed to observe the secretion of Lcp according to the color change.

CotA-Lcp-HlyA

CotA-Lcp-HlyA is composed of three basic parts, Lcp1VH2, HlyA and CotA. HlyA and Lcp are connected by Gibson assembly in order to allow Lcp to be secreted outside the cell through HlyA,and assembling CotA on the composite part can help to indicate the secretion.


Usage and Biology

Design consideration

As we introduce signal peptide into latex clearing protein production, we need a visual indicator to indicate the functioning and the presence of signal peptide secretion. GFP and laccase are the two reporters that have been used in our experiment. Vector p47 with GFP is used to examine the effectiveness of different peptides at first.

Later, we introduced lactase-cotA as our indicator. Laccase will only react with a specific substrate---ABTS. As we encode laccase into the cell, it will produce laccase along with Lcp. Since ABTS is filled into the LB, it will react with laccase that produced by the cell and soon be oxidized, turning into the color of bullish-green. Therefore, by using laccase, we will be allowed to observe the secretion of Lcp according to the color change.

The effect and result

We created p47-laccase-Lcp, p47-laccase-Lcp-HlyA, p47-laccase-HlyA, and pET28-Lcp-HlyA as the control to test our hypothesis. In the results, the control group (Figure 4A), as expected, showed no sign of coloration due to the absence of laccase; in the sample containing p47-laccase-Lcp (Figure 4B) secretion happened which implies that laccase by itself can act as a secretion agent; for p47-laccase-HlyA, no secretion happened, and we suspect that HlyA and laccase might suppress each other’s activity; however, when laccase and HlyA are positioned at the two ends of Lcp, this conflict is resolved, showed by Figure 4. As shown by figure 4, CotA-Lcp-HlyA has achieved successful secretion.
