Because Sa-AFP2 had not been expressed by E. coli before, it was a new challenge.The strain we chose to make Sa-AFP2 was E.coli Rosetta-gami strain, which can form the disulfide bonds in the cytoplasm to express the protein.To ensure the peptide was produced, after breaking the bacteria and boiling the lysate with sample buffer and β-mercaptoethanol mixture for 15 minutes, we run SDS-PAGE to check the mass of the peptide. The mass of Sa-AFP2 is around 5.6 kDa. | Because Sa-AFP2 had not been expressed by E. coli before, it was a new challenge.The strain we chose to make Sa-AFP2 was E.coli Rosetta-gami strain, which can form the disulfide bonds in the cytoplasm to express the protein.To ensure the peptide was produced, after breaking the bacteria and boiling the lysate with sample buffer and β-mercaptoethanol mixture for 15 minutes, we run SDS-PAGE to check the mass of the peptide.

T7 Promoter+RBS+Sa-AFP2
Introduction
This peptide possesses antifungal activity sensitive to inorganic cations from the defensin family and was proved to have an anti-fungal function. NCTU_Formosa used it to be one of a training data for creating our anti-fungal peptide scoring card.
Experiment
1. Cloning
We put T7 promoter, RBS, and Sa-AFP2 together with pSB1C3 as a backbone. Then we conducted Taq PCR to check the size of the DNA sequence was right. The length of T7 promoter+RBS+Sa-AFP2 is around 250 ~ 500 b.p.. Its PCR product is around 500 ~ 750 b.p..
2. Expressing
Because Sa-AFP2 had not been expressed by E. coli before, it was a new challenge.The strain we chose to make Sa-AFP2 was E.coli Rosetta-gami strain, which can form the disulfide bonds in the cytoplasm to express the protein.To ensure the peptide was produced, after breaking the bacteria and boiling the lysate with sample buffer and β-mercaptoethanol mixture for 15 minutes, we run SDS-PAGE to check the mass of the peptide. The mass of Sa-AFP2 is around 5.6 kDa.
Safety
We do the safety part which is the same as the Sa-AFP1. See more in BBa_K2262005.
