Design Notes

We selected a rhamnose-inducible promoter (BBa_K902065) with a strong ribosome binding site (BBa_B0034), since this promoter is titratable and would allow for controlled expression of the fimH adhesin.

We edited out an illegal PstI cut site in fimH through site-directed mutagenesis.

The SpyTag binding motif was inserted into the fusion site of fimH via site-directed mutagenesis.

The nickel binding HisTag was inserted into fusion sites of fimH via site-directed mutagenesis.

We picked site 225 since there was strong evidence in the literature that small fusions inserted at this site such as his-tags were expressed and functional on assembled pili.

We changed site 49 on FimH, since researchers found that it knocked out mannose binding, but maintained expression of the FimH protein.

Source

The fimH gene was amplified from the E. coli K-12 genome.
