Design Notes
The sequence contains a C-terminal His-tag (BBa_K3117005) for easy purification and detection. Secretion of the protein is ensured by an Igk leader (BBa_K3117006), which directs the produced protein into the secretory pathway. When the protein passes the membrane, the leader segment is cleaved off. By connecting the variable regions of the heavy and the light chain of an anti-GPA33 antibody with a short, flexible GGGGS linker (BBa_K3117028), the scFv retains its antigen-binding ability and is much smaller than a conventional antibody.
The SpyCatcher attached to the scFv belongs to the SpyTag/SpyCatcher system, of which the sequence is derived of the FbaB protein in the bacteria Streptococcus pyogenes. Once it comes into contact with its corresponding other part, the SpyTag (BBa_K3117015), they bind covalently (Hatlem, Trunk, Linke, & Leo, 2019). This allows our part to be used in a modular manner in combination with other molecules carrying the SpyTag.
Since the scFv targets GPA33, which is expressed on more than 95% of colon cancers (Rageul et al., 2009), our part is expected to be optimal for specifically directing its fusion partner (e.g. an effector protein) to colon cancer cells.
