HydA with SpyCatcher, Histag and TEV site

This part encodes the major enzyme of [FeFe] hydrogenase HydA is the main catalytic unit is a modified and codon-optimized protein, we added Histag and TEV site to the N-terminal site of HydA, and SpyCatcher to the C-terminal site of HydA.

Also, we optimized [FeFe] Hydrogenases (HydA) originally from the bacterium Clostridium acetobutylicum (Original coding sequence: hydA, BBa_K535002, Designed by: iGEM11_UNAM-Genomics_ Mexico.) to accept electrons and therefor enable catalytic production of hydrogen in our project. The optimized coding sequence would produce more protein, theoretically. And optimization also improved the activity of [FeFe] Hydrogenases according to the experiment that we did.

Results of Cloning

We fused pACE-Histag-TEV-hydA-Spycatcher with pDK-hydF, pDC-hydE, pDS-hydG together to give the new plasmid. To test if we successfully fused the four subplasmid, we use single restricted endonuclease digestion of Nde I. The restriction gives three bands on a 1% TAE Gel, in accordance with the band predicted by SnapGene®.

Figure 1 The test of fusion of the plasmid.

Enzyme Activity Assay

Unfortunately, compared to the modified HydA protein with SpyTag, the modified HydA protein with SpyCather didn't have the activity of hydrogen production. We will improve or achieve the activity of this modified enzyme in the future work.

Figure 2 The Activity of HydA-SpyCatcher results compared with that of HydA-SpyTag.
