ribozyme connected: H. ex mtSSB + SAHS 33020 + AnAFP
Introduction
This composite part combines BBa_K4765016(H. ex mtSSB),BBa_K2306003(SAHS 33020)and BBa_K4765015(AnAFP) in our ribozyme-assisted polycistronic co-expression system:pRAP.
AnAFP is an antifreeze protein which endows E. coli with antifreeze capibility. SAHS 33020 is a heat soluble protein found in the tardigrades which increase E. coli 's stability against desiccation. H. ex mtSSB is a type of mitochondrial single-stranded DNA binding protein which improves E. coli 's resistance to desiccation and UV radiation.
Characterization
Anti-desiccation capability
We constructed H. ex mtSSB, SAHS 33020, and AnAFP into this part using pRAP. Within BBa_K4765127, we rearranged the positions of these three proteins.
We've designed an experimental group with E. coli expressing H. ex mtSSB , SAHS 33020 and AnAFP, and used E. coli transformed with the empty pET28a vector as a control. All proteins are expressed via leakage in E. coli BL21 DE3. All the groups are incubated overnight. After reaching an OD600 value of 1.0, liquid culture is centrifuged, and the supernatant is removed. Pellets are dried for 6.5 hr in SpeedVac (Savant SpeedVac SC100) under 4 0 °C .Finally, the pellets are weighed and resuspended in LB medium and dilute 10^5-fold for CFU counting.
Through experiments, we observed that when both H. ex mtSSB and SAHS 33020 are co-expressed, E. coli exhibits a higher survival rate under desiccation compared to E. coli expressing these two proteins individually. Furthermore, altering the order of these three proteins in pRAP does not affect the survival rate of E. coli, indicating that pRAP can correctly express these proteins, regardless of their position.
Figure 1. The dry weight of all the gourps after freeze-drying
There is no statistically significant difference in the dry weights among the experimental groups, indicating that the number of E. coli is consistent between the bacterial tubes. |
Figure 2. CFU colony count of all the groups after freeze-drying
CFU colonies/mL= CFU count*10^6 The E. coli expressing H.ex mtSSB, SAHS 33020 and AnAFP together showed higher CFU counts after freeze-drying compared to E.coli expresssing H. ex mtSSB and SAHS33020 individually. Futhermore there's no significant difference between the two E. coli with rearranged protein positions. |
