Applications of BBa_K3117026
Use of the part by the iGEM Team Erlangen:
The construct 2a (K2a) was synthesized by IDT. Therefore, it was cloned into the expression vector pSEC/tag2/Hygro\C\-\OK by Gibson Assembly. Our protein was under control of the CMV promotor ensuring a high-level constitutive expression. Afterwards, the construct was brought into HEK293T cells with either calcium phosphate transfection or lipofection.
Accuracy of the inserted DNA after cloning was confirmed by sequencing. The data is depicted in Fig. 1.

Fig.2 shows the western blot of the harvest after transfection into HEK 293T cells. For detection, the His-Tag in the K2a sequence (BBa_K3117005) provides the opportunity to be used as a target for a primary antibody in a western blot.
K2a can be seen at expected height (42 kDa). Blurry bands might resulted from protease degradation. The presence of K2a in the medium proves the function of the Igk leader (BBa_K3117006), which is directing the protein into the secretory pathway.

Furthermore the His-Tag (BBa_K3117005) in K2a allows purification of the protein with HisTrap columns. The western blot after purification is shown in Fig. 3, depicting the remaining presence of the protein after this step.

For the SpyTag/SpyCatcher reaction the protein K2a was added to the protein K2b (BBa_K3117030). A height of 83 kDa was expected in the afterwards performed western blot, depicted in Fig 4. A specific band appeared after adding the two products, but this band was running at ~120 kDa. This size might be explained by formation of trimeric protein (Schoene, Fierer, Bennett, & Howarth, 2014).
