cbm-his tag
Biology
cbm encodes the cellulose-binding domain (CBD) of an exoglucanase from Cellulomonas fimi., which can bind to cellulose irreversibly. At the same time, it performs excellent at low temperatures and in a wide pH range (1), which is suitable for our project.
Usage and design
To avoid irrigation water or rainwater washing away our engineered bacteria, we plan to use a Cellulose-binding module (CBM) to make them adhere to the surface of crop roots. It was subcloned and modified with his-tag for protein purification and further biochemical characterization.
Characterization
Agarose gel electrophoresis (AGE)
This part was constructed into a pET-28a(+) vector using seamless cloning and the correct plasmid was transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3). Colony PCR and gene sequencing were used to verify that the transformants were correct. Target bands (506 bp) can be observed at the position around 500 bp (Fig. 1).
SDS-PAGE
The plasmid verified by sequencing was successfully transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3). After being cultivated and induced by 0.75 mM IPTG, the GE AKTA Prime Plus FPLC System was employed to get purified protein from the lysate supernatant. CBM was verified by sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) - 12% (wt/vol) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) and Coomassie blue staining. As shown in the gel image (Fig. 2), the bands of the target protein (11.9 kDa) could be observed at the position around 10 kDa on the purified protein lanes (FR).
The binding ability to cellulose
We conducted an experiment to compare the adsorption capacity of CBM and BSA on cellulose. In this experiment, we filtered 4 mL of 10 µM CBM and BSA three times using cellulose filter paper and washed it three times with 1xPBS. We diluted the final filtrate to the same volume, measured the amount of protein in the filtrate using the Bradford method, and repeated the experiment three times. As shown in Fig. 3, the difference between CBM and BSA can be observed significantly through OD595.
