FliC Desulfovibrio producer

The purpose of this biobrick is to produce as much flagellin as possible, for incorporation in to flagella.

This biobrick was made from 2 parts:

FliC, the main swimming protein of Desulfovibrio""

General

Flagellin C (FliC) protein from Desulfovibrio vulgaris strain is the main protein constitutive of the flagellum filament and is involved to promote bacterial swimming. This sequence is conserved in many bacterial strains as the capacity of swimming given by the flagellum confers a great selective advantage.

Representative electron micrographs of nanoparticles produced by D. alaskensis G20. Pd is found on the surface of the cell [1]

Metal Biosorption Capacity

It has been demonstrated that Flagellin has the ability to adsorb precious metal on its surface such as platinum, palladium gold [2][3] and this was important for our project [http://2016.igem.org/Team:Aix-Marseille/Design#Biosorption_and_reduction_using_flagellin_and_peptides Highway to platinum]

Immune response capacity

The propensity of the immune response to flagellin may be explained by two facts:

  • Flagellin is an extremely abundant protein in flagellated bacteria.
  • There exists a specific innate immune receptor that recognizes flagellin, Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5). [4]

.

Design summary

We found the sequence in online databases, and after processed it ordered it to IDT. The cloning was made fisrly in the pSB1C3 vector thanks to SLIC oligo designed by our team.

Experience summary

Once sequencing data indicated that the cloning and transformation was successful, we assessed the production of the protein by a SDS page/comassie test. COOMASSIE However, no functionality test as swimming test has been carried out with this biobrick contrary to the FliC protein from E .coli
