S-layer cspB from Corynebacterium glutamicum with TAT-Sequence and lipid anchor, PT7 and RBS

Usage and Biology

S-layer proteins can be used as scaffold for nanobiotechnological applications and devices by e.g. fusing the S-layer's self-assembly domain to other functional protein domains. It is possible to coat surfaces and liposomes with S-layers. A big advantage of S-layers: after expressing in E. coli and purification, the nanobiotechnological system is cell-free. This enhances the biological security of a device.

This fluorescent S-layer fusion protein is used to characterize purification methods and the S-layer's ability to self-assemble on surfaces.

Expression in E. coli

The CspB gen was fused with a monomeric RFP (BBa_E1010) using [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Bielefeld-Germany/Protocols#Gibson_assembly Gibson assembly] for characterization.

The CspB|mRFP fusion protein was overexpressed in E. coli KRX after induction of T7 polymerase by supplementation of 0,1 % L-rhamnose using the [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Bielefeld-Germany/Protocols/Downstream-processing#Expression_of_S-layer_genes_in_E._coli autinduction protocol] from promega.

Identification and localisation

After cultivation the CspB|mRFP fusion protein has to be localized in E. coli KRX. Therefor a part of the produced biomass was mechanically disrupted and the resulting lysat was wahed with ddH₂O. From the other part the periplasm was isolated using a osmotic shock. The existance of fluorescene in the periplasma fraction, shown in fig. 3, indicate that Brevibacterium flavum-signal sequence is at least in part functional in E. coli KRX.

The S-layer fusion protein could not be found in the polyacrylamide gel after a [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Bielefeld-Germany/Protocols/Analytics#Sodium_dodecyl_sulfate_polyacrylamide_gel_electrophoresis_.28SDS-PAGE.29 SDS-PAGE] of the lysate and the cell depris were still red. This indicated that the fusion protein intigrates because of the lipid anchor into the cell membrane. For testing this assumption the washed lysate was treted with ionic, nonionic and zwitterionic detergents to release K525121 out of the membranes.

The proportionally high RFU in the detergent fractions and the MALDI-TOF analysis of the relevant size range in the polyacrylamid gel approved the insertion into the cell membrane (fig. 3).

Cultivations were carried out in autoinduction medium at 37 ˚C. The cells were mechanically disrupted and the resulting biomass was wahed with ddH₂O and resuspendet in the respective detergent. The used detergent acronyms stand for: SDS = 10 % (v/v) sodium dodecyl sulfate; UTU = 7 M urea and 3 M thiourea; U = 10 M urea; NLS = 10 % (v/v) n-lauroyl sarcosine; CHAPS = 3-[(3-cholamidopropyl)dimethylammonio]-1-propanesulfonate.
