Two-component system response regulator protein RpfG from Xanthomononas campestris pv. campestris
Description
This the protein-encoding gene for the Sensory/regulatory protein RpfC, which is codon-optimized to express in Escherichia coli K12 strain. This part is developed and improved based on the previous record part (BBa_K1315003). The western blot data of our composite part (BBa_K3071019) shows it could be correctly expressed in E. coli.
Biology
RpfG consists of 2 domains, the REC domain, and the HD-GYP domain, which is a phosphodiesterase involved in the degradation of the second messenger cyclic -di-GMP. When it is phosphorylated by the RpfC, it is activated as phosphodiesterase and alter cyclic-di-GMP level. As a result, it promotes the synthesis of virulence factors, e.g. extracellular enzymes, dispersal of biofilm and motility of the bacterial cell.
Usage
RpfG is the kinase involved in DSF sensing. When it is phosphorylated by the RpfC, it is activated as phosphodiesterase and alter cyclic-di-GMP level. As a result, it promotes the synthesis of virulence factors through activation of Clp, e.g. extracellular enzymes, dispersal of biofilm and motility of the bacterial cell.
Characterization
By comparing the protein expression level of RpfG (Old:BBa_K1315003 and New:BBa_K3071002) in Escherichia coli K12 strain, it confirms that the codon optimization of our biocrick is successful. RpfG overexpression can be clearly seen in clones after codon optimization. The amount of RpfG proteins significantly increased compared to that in the old clones. The amount also rose with a longer incubation time of IPTG. Comparing Figure 1b and Figure 2, we can deduce that RpfG expression reached saturation at 12hr and started degradation afterward.
