T7 promoter+csgA-linker-mfp5-His fusion protein

This composite parts is meant to express csgA-linker-mfp5 fusion genes under T7 promoter and purify CsgA-linker-Mfp5 recombinant proteins by His-tag affinity purification. CsgA is an amyloid-like protein encoded on genome of E.coli MG1655 providing mechanical cohesive strength and Mfp5 is a mussel foot protein from Mytilus galloprovincialis responsible for interface adhesion. This recombinant protein would self-assemble into fibrous bundles or films with adhesive properties by displaying the mussel adhesion domains on the surface of amyloid scaffolds, which would be a promising new generation of bio-inspired adhesives for a wide range of applications. This part was designed based on the core part——mfp5, which has been submitted into parts registry by iGEM2015 Tu_delft(BBa_K1583002).
