mGFPuv2-mSA2 generator
This part constitutively expresses a fusion protein comprising monomeric variants of GFPuv (mGFPuv2) and Streptavidin (mSA2). When the crude lysate of a culture of E. coli that contains this part is spread over solid biotinylated poly lactic acid (PLA), the strong affinity of mSA2 to biotin causes the fusion protein to adhere to the PLA. The biotin-mSA2 interaction is strong enough to resist multiple washes with saline.
PLA is a material often used for 3D printing and biotin can be incorporated either in the raw filament itself, or coated on the printed structure [http://2016.igem.org/Team:UGent_Belgium/Filament|http://2016.igem.org/Team:UGent_Belgium/Filament]. This part was created to demonstrate that mSA2 can be used to attach proteins to 3D printed structures. The combination of Synthetic Biology and 3D printing could greatly broaden the applicability of many biological parts.
