Linker + EstA Membrane Protein

EstA is an outer membrane-anchored esterase from Pseudomonas aeruginosa. It has autotransporter activities that reside in its catalytic N-terminal domain, the C-terminal domain formes a β-barrel-like structure. EstA is inserted in the bacterial outer membrane where the N-terminal domain is translocated outside the outer membrane. (Becker, Theile, Heppeler & Michalczyk, 2005).

The successful cell-surface display of lipases as fusion proteins to an inactive variant of EstA has already been described where the passenger enzymes retain their hydrolytic activities after being anchored on the outer surface of E. coli cells. (Becker, Theile, Heppeler & Michalczyk, 2005)

An inactive EstA variant was used as an anchoring motif for the Escherichia coli cell-surface display of lipolytic enzymes.

Three Dimensional Structure of the "Esta" Membrane Protein, including its esterease translocated domain.

However, we used only its transmembranal domain, without its functional esterease. This approach enables the exchange of different small proteins.
By the use of restriction enzymes, NheI and SacI, according to our results one can insert another enzyme ready to be displayed outside the outer membrane in E. coli.
