1UTM-HRP (fusion)

1UTM-HRP is a translational fusion of Atlantic salmon trypsin (1UTM) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP). 1UTM can bind to PEA (a natural inhibitor of salmon trypsin), and HRP is a chemiluminescent enzyme. A 6-His tag followed by a TEV protease linker was added at the N-terminus to allow for purification by Ni-NTA affinity chromatography. At the C-terminus, an Avi-tag was appended, allowing for biotinylation. A flexible, moderately long (13 AA), and polar linker (consisting of Ser and Thr) separated 1UTM and HRP, allowing for proper functioning and stability of the fusion protein in aqueous solution. The resulting fusion protein can be used for the detection of PEA in a diagnostic microfluidic assay that produces a quantifiable chemiluminescent signal, which was the basis of Waterloo iGEM 2021's project.
