PelC-GFP in lane 4 shows similar results as well as an unexpected band at around 1500bp. While double checking our construct designs we noticed a illegal EcoRI cut site in the coding sequence that was missed during initial designing.

PelC-GFP in lane 4 shows similar results as well as an unexpected band at around 1500bp. We are not sure why this is occurring as the there are no illegal cut sites within the sequence.

Pectin Lyase PelC-GFP

The PelC Pectin Lyase is originally from Paenabacillus amylolyticus. This particular pectin lyase is more specific to methylated pectin or homogalacturonan substrates rather than polygalacturonic acid [1]. This protein also works with both PelB (BBa_K3349001) and Pnl (BBa_K3349001) in this organism to effectively break down pectin. PelC has an optimal activity at 55°C and a pH of 10. The Km in in terms of 80% methylated substrates is 0.41 +/-0.06mg/ml. Calcium is a cofactor for this protein and is therefore necessary within the buffer conditions [1].

A GFP reporter was added onto the C-terminus. As well a C-terminal his tag was added to the GFP for nickel affinity purification.

PelC-GFP in lane 4 shows similar results as well as an unexpected band at around 1500bp. We are not sure why this is occurring as the there are no illegal cut sites within the sequence.
