Optimized keratinase KerA

Introduction

This composite part is an optimized version of KERA that can be constructed into pSB1C3 plasmid with the highest protein expression in E.coli BL21(DE3). The KERA (BBa_K1717171) is a basic part comprised from a synthesized KERA protein coding sequence. The gene can be expressed in cells by looking for clear areas of cell growth on AGAR plates of skimmed milk, and by observing keratin-containing substrates (feathers, hair, chemosynthetic keratin, etc.) growing with cells. Detailed optimization data can be checked here: https://2021.igem.org/wiki/images/0/04/T--SZ_SHD--dataset.csv

Experiment details

• Throughput: 2500
• Organism: E. coli
• Strain type: BL21(DE3)
• Temperature: 37°C
• Media: 250 ml LB
• Period of time: 16 hours
• Plasmid backbone: pSB1C3


A. Vec platform was used to test the expression of KERA in more than 2000 random expression vectors. Different regulatory elements used in the vector can result in nearly 10 orders of magnitude difference in KERA expression.
