Profile

Name: miniSOG
Base Pairs: 372bp
Origin: Arabidopsis thaliana
Properties: A mutagenesis phototropin protein which can generate ROS after being exposed to blue light

Usage and Biology

miniSOG was engineered by-site specific mutagenesis from Arabidopsis phototropin 2, which naturally binds FMN but does not generate ROS [1]-[3]. By mutation, it can generate ROS after being exposed to blue light and ROS can oxidize guanosine into an intermediate, which could be attacked by primary amine to form covalent bond with NH2-containing probes which could be used to label RNA.

Design and Construction

For this part, we got the amino acid sequence thanks to a grant from the Peng Zou lab, Peking University. Then we optimized the protein codon and synthesized the sequence by company.

Functional Verification

Validation based on protein expression level

After getting the synthetic plasmid, we test it by DNA sequencing and the result showed correctness of the sequence. Then we transformed the plasmid into BL21 chemocompetent cells and expressed miniSOG successfully. We first test the expression of miniSOG by Coomassie bright blue staining and the result is below (Fig. 1).
Figure 1: The Coomassie dyeing result

Validation based on protein activity

Then the purified miniSOG was used to test it labelling ability and the results of labelling strongly suggested the protein activity of miniSOG (Fig. 2). Under blue light illumination, miniSOG can catalyze labelling of RNA with biotin-NH2 probes. After the reaction, RNA clean & concentrator kit (Zymo) was used to get rid of excess biotin-NH2 probes and dot-plot assay was used for color development using streptavidin-HRP followed by substrates (see protocol for experimental details). This result is in line with the results reported by previous literature[1], and we established a relatively fixed work flow for labelling assay during these initial experiments.
Figure 2: The non-specific labelling of RNA using miniSOG To prepare for the subsequent test of specific markers, we tested the sensitivity of miniSOG RNA labelling ability after verifying its activity (Fig. 3). From this test, the result shows, when the RNA concentration is above 200ng/ul, miniSOG can significantly label RNA. Therefore, the RNA concentration of 200ng/ul is used as the standard line for detection in our later experiments. Figure 3: The result of miniSOG RNA labelling sensitivity test
