deGFP-ssra


de-GFP ssra is a destabilized GFP created by "fusing amino acids 422–461 of the degradation domain of mouse ornithine decarboxylase (MODC) to the C-terminal end of an enhanced variant of GFP (EGFP) 1 This destabilized GFP is fitted with an ssrA degradation tag.

Summary: According to the lectures, we learned that the degradation rate of eGFP-ssrA could be measured. In cell-free system, protein degradation by clpXP is described by a zeroth order chemical kinetic,and clpxp protein can recognize the protein with ssrA tag, so it is useful to add clpxp degrading the degfp. This year,on the basis work of iGEM18_William_and_Mary, ZJUT-China measured the different eGFP degradation rate by adding different concentrate of plasmid P70-clpxp (Part:BBa_K3885203) based on the reference. We hope it will support more help on modelling and further experiments.

Methodology

There are two methods to express clpxp protein: co-expression and pre-expression.Accelerated protein degradation can be achieved by co-expression of P70a-ClpXP, by adding protein to a cell-free system pre-incubated with P70a-ClpXP for an hour or by adding dilutions of pre-expressed clpXP (P70a-clpXP, 3nM). Different methods can provide different rates of protein degradation, ranging from 9.3 nM/min to 250 nM/min. By expressing clpXP, protein synthesis can be adjusted to an appropriate rate.[1]

Results

Figure 1 Degradation rate of deGFP upon different expression methods of ClpXP.

The degradation rate of deGFP-ssrA only using the endogenous ClpXP has been determined by an assay, which is achieved by measuring the kinetics after adding pure His-GFP-ssrA (5μM) to the Cell-Free system.

Analysis

As shown in the figure above, the higher the concentration of CLPXP, the faster the degradation of eGFP-ssrA. Meanwhile, according to the table, when ClpXP with the same concentration was added, eGFP degradation rate in pre-expression was from 6.5 nM/min to 256 nM/min, while in co-expression, eGFP degradation rate was from 9.3 nM/min to 128 nM/min. It can be concluded that pre-expression is more conducive to eGFP protein degradation than co-expression.
