TnaA with N-terminal SnoopCatcher

TnaA belongs to the family of the tryptophanase (tna) operon leader peptide. Tryptophanase catalyses the degradation of L-tryptophan to indole, pyruvate and ammonium, enabling the bacteria to utilise tryptophan as a source of carbon, nitrogen and energy. The tna operon of E. coli contains two major structural genes, tnaA and tnaB.

SnoopCatcher (BBa_K4229009) is fused via a short N-terminal linker TnaA. The tag enables recruitment into the compartment system (wiffelball).

Figure 1: Schematic representation of the indigo/indirubin pathway. L-tryptophan is imported by the membrane protein TnaB (low-affinity tryptophan permease). L-tryptophan is cleaved into indole, NH4+ and pyruvate by the tryptophanase TnaA. The reaction continues by the hydroxylation of indole through XiaI. To enhance the effectivity of this enzyme, the NAD(P)H-flavin reductase provides XiaI with FADH2 by adding hydrogen to FAD. Finally, indole is transformed to either 3-Hydroxyindole or 2-Hydroxyindole. These two substances spontaneously react to 3-Oxindole and 2-Oxindole through the secession of hydrogen from the OH-group. Through spontaneous dimerisation indigo and indirubin are formed. Graphic adapted from [2].
