This parts code for the Trim21 E3 ligase with the PRYSPRY domain truncated (BBa_K3396007), fused to type 1 Dockerin module derived from Clostridium thermocellum cellulosome scaffoldin by a Glycine Serine flexible linker repeated three times to maintain part flexibility needed during target ubiquitination.

Usage and Biology

This fusion protein is part of our Trim System (Snitch System), it is a modified version of the NUDT 2020 part (BBa_K3396005). It is supposed to bind to the PROTAC (Coh2-linker-tau_binding_peptide) to assemble a full system that will be able to target Tau protein through the binding peptide and recruit ubiquitin to tag the whole protein to initiate degradation by proteasomes through Trim21.

Trim21 (E3) is an integral part of the protein turnover processes which serves as a quality control step. In order to be degraded by proteasome 26S, the protein must be tagged with a ubiquitin tail. E3 ligase serves the function of transferring the ubiquitin to the protein of interest. So, in order for the process to be directed more specifically at certain proteins, we took advantage of the high affinity between the two modules (DocS and Coh2) which make up the cellulosome, to act as a protein pair that will guide trim to any chosen protein.

This process could be done by anchoring Trim21 to either one of the modules and anchoring its other counterpart with a targeting domain for the protein of interest, more feasible and directed ubiquitination of the target protein has been achieved, which eventually leads to specific degradation.

Comparison between chemical lysis and sonication for His Trim21 (L) DOC

                      Figure 4. This graph shows a significant difference between chemical lysis and sonication
                            for His Trim21 (L) DOC, after we had the results, we optimized our protocol to
                                         use sonication for His Trim21 (L) DOC

SDS PAGE of induced and non-induced samples of His Trim 21 (L) DOC

             Figure 5. This figure shows the comparison between the induced and non-induced samples of His Trim21 
              (L) DOC, where well no.1 is the non-induced sample while well no.3 is the induced sample showing that 
              our protein is induced effectively owing to our right choice of IPTG, time interval and concentration

Pull down assay of His Trim21 (L) DOC against GST COH WWW and GST COH TD28 Rev

             Figure 6. This graph shows the comparison of pull down assay between His Trim (L) DOC against GST COH WWW and 
              GST COH TD28 Rev, showing that the interaction between His Trim21 (L) DOC and GST COH WWW is better than that 
              of His Trim (L) DOC and GST COH TD28 Rev as the concentration of the elution coming from the pull down assay 
              of His Trim21 (L) DOC and GST COH WWW is more than that of His Trim21 (L) DOC and GST COH TD28rev
