General information about flagellin (FliC protein)
To see an exemple of this biobrick functionality, you can visit our composite part : BBa_K1951009
This coding sequence codes flagellin C which is a main protein involved for the extracellular flagellar establishment. Flagellar enables bacterial swimming. It has been shown that the flagellin structure from Desulfovibrio can adsorb metallic nanoparticules as gold or platinum. [2]
Design summary
Starting from the Desulfovibrio vulgaris strain Hildenborough flagellin sequence ( http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nucleotide/46451220?report=genbank&log$=nucltop&blast_rank=3&RID=WDB55ADB014 ) we have designed a part to produce this protein in E. coli chassis BBa_K1951009. All forbidden restriction sites have been removed. Codons have been optimized for E.coli to allow a maximal transcription level.
Proof of functionality
This sequence has been tested: placed under the control of a strong promoter with a ribosome binding site the sequence has been validated as functional. For further information, go on the following link : BBa_K1951009 design
