α-galactosidase GH110b_Bacteroides fragilis
This encodes a α-galactosidase from Bacteroides fragilis. This enzyme is available on Uniprot with the entry Q5LGZ8. We added a 6X his-tag on the C-terminus of the protein.
This enzyme removes the acetyl moiety of N-acetyl-α-D-galactosamine (A antigen). This however does not result in full degradation of A antigen a α-D-galactosamine residue remains. This enzyme works in pair with the α-D-galactosamine galactosaminidase (Part BBa_K4726001) to fully remove the A antigen, producing the H antigen, most commonly known as O type blood.
The expression of this enzyme led to significant proteotoxicity shown by an impaired growth of Escherichia coli BL21 (DE3). We thus recommended to use Escherichia coli Rosetta (DE3) pLysS which helps stabilizing pET recombinants encoding proteins.
