MIDAS2 gold binding peptide

MIDAS2 is a gold binding synthetic peptide. We synthesized a gene expressing this peptide with a pelB signaling sequence to be excreted out of the E. coli.

Characterization

We created a set of hybrid parts (BBa_J23100 + BBa_K1127000-3) for characterization using Nanoparticle Tracking Analyzer (NanoSight LM10 ®). The device allows us to visualize, measure and characterize any type of nanoparticles and any size down to 10nm. The technology is based on optical properties as well as Brownian motion of the particles. Please visit http://www.nanosight.com/ for more information.

We obtained a series of recordings and several analytical reports of the particles within samples from the overnight cultures of E. coli strain DH5 alpha transformed with the hybrids. Unfortunately, the results can't provide evidence for gold bio-mineralization because changes were subtle and not significant compared to the controls (untransformed E. coli). Please visit out Protocols section for more detail [http://2013.igem.org/Team:York_UK/Notebook.html?page=protocols].

-We tried to characterize the part using Nanoparticle Tracking Analyzer from NanoSight [http://www.nanosight.com]. The part was cloned into BBa_J23100 [https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_J23100] which allows constitutive expression of the peptide.
