NodCIJ Operon

NodC, NodI and NodJ in sequence. Each preceded by an RBS.

NodC is the Chitin synthase from Rhiozobium leguminosarum, Nodl a protein possibly involved in transporting chitin across the cell membrane, and NodJ, a protein also possibly involved in the transportation of chitin

To test if the cells were secreting chitin, The FSU 2021 team used the Chitosan Assay Kit (XAN-5126) available from Cell Biolabs. The manual for this kit contains the protocols for converting chitin to chitosan, along with a protocol for detecting chitosan.

Chitin from the cells was converted into chitosan by reacting with 12.5M NaOH at 95°C for 24 hours. The solution was then neutralized with acetic acid. The assay was then performed on the supernatant of the cell culture.
