CapD

A protein native to Bacillus anthracis which cleaves poly-D-gamma-glutamate (PDGA) and anchors it to the bacterium's peptidoglycan

Usage and Biology

To test BBa _K314011, it was inserted into a pET29b+ vector using Kunkel's Mutagenesis. CapD was then produced and purified as described in the [http://2010.igem.org/Team:Washington/Protocols/50mLPurificationCapD UW 2010 iGEM Team's Small Scale Protein Purification Protocol]. The purified protein was then tested for activity against CapD_CP, for a detailed description of the assay please see the [http://2010.igem.org/Team:Washington/Protocols/EnzymeAssayCapD 2010 UW iGEM wiki]. The resulting data is shown below.
