NodI
This part was lifted from the UniProt entry UniProtKB - P08720 [1]. This protein is from the Nodulation Operon (Nod) from Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. Viciae. This protein forms an ABC transporter cassette complex with Part BBa_K3792001 to transport Nodulation factors (Lipo-chito-oligomers or LCO’s) across the cell membrane to induce nodulation [2-5]. Nodulation is the process by which an organ is formed with a host plant to house the symbiotic bacterium.
The 2021 FSU iGEM team has experimented with BBa_K2380000 and BBa_K3792000 to try and express chito-oligomers efficiently outside the cell membrane of E. Coli. The predicted structure of the NodIJ complex is available for download at https://2021.igem.org/Team:FSU/Model
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.
