Biology
MV140
MipA, a surface display protein that can anchor to the membrane surface of E. coli, belongs to the MipA/OmpV family. The current study shows that MipA is expressed and functions in strains of both E. coli K12 and B strains. (1) Through the structural analysis, the MipA protein contains five extracellular loops that form a β-sheet protruding from the cell surface. Among these loops, the third, fourth and fifth loops are primarily considered, since they likely have stronger and more stable anchoring ability in the β-barrel structure of E. coli. Therefore, to better exert MipA activity, we chose MV140, a derivative of MipA as the surface display protein. MV140truncated the nucleotide at position 140 at the C-terminus of MipA, which showed higher surface display efficiency compared with MipA.
Usage and design
Anchoring of cellulose-binding protein to the bacterial surface is an important part of the NAIADS project. Based on 2021 (SALVAGE) and 2022 (OMEGA) project of XMU-China, we further refined the bacterial surface display system. We chose MV140 as the surface display protein which will connect the cellulose binding protein (BBa_K4907027) on the bacterial surface. Cellulose-binding protein will bind to the cellulose of plant roots, thus allowing the engineered bacteria to stick to and perform functions around the roots.
This part is meant to express MV140 with his-tag(6×his) under control of L-arabinose-inducible promoter, thus we can verify the surface display ability of MV140 by immunofluorescence.

Characterization
Agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE)
When constructing this circuit, colony PCR and gene sequencing were used to verify that the transformants were correct. Target bands (2188 bp) can be observed at the position between 2000 and 3000 bp (Fig. 2).
Ability of MV140 anchoring on the surface of engineered bacteria
First, we used 2% L-arabinose solution to induce the expression of the surface-display system. Then FITC-labeled anti-His-tag antibody was added to characterize whether the displayed MV140 itself could bind on the surface of engineered bacteria.
Fig. 3 The results of immunofluorescence to probe the binding event on the surface of engineered bacteria. (p = 0.004608 ).
The ratio of fluorescence intensity (λEx = 492 nm, λEm = 518 nm) to OD600 of the experimental group (express the surface-display system) is higher than that of negative control (not express the surface-display system) (Fig. 3), which indicates the anchoring ability of MV140 to the surface of bacteria.
