mTurquoise2 with C-terminal SnoopCatcher regulated by tetA/B promotor
This BioBrick was used as a fluorescent reporter fused with a SpyCatcher, enabling recruitment by the SpyTag.
We used this fusion protein to test the functionality of our compartments: the minimal wiffleball (BBa_K4229047), full wiffleball (BBa_K4229049), and SPD-5 (BBa_K4229078). All compartmentalization proteins have an N-terminal SpyTag.
The Snoop/SpyTag Snoop/SpyCatcher was tested with those two reporter genes. A fluorescent signal in the bacteria that expressed either protein could be detected. Upon co-expression with compartmentalization proteins, foci were formed (especially well with the full wiffleball) with both reporter genes:
It was later confirmed that in fact mTurqouise was cached by T1 by a western blot comparing the full wiffleball and the minimal wiffleball.
With that, we can say that our mTurquiose2 with the snoopCatcher is successfully expressed and caught by our compartment.
