cjBlue, green chromoprotein
This chromoprotein from the Cnidopus japonicus sea anemone, cjBlue, naturally exhibits dark green color when expressed. Compared to some other chromoproteins, such as amilCP (BBa_K592009), amilGFP (BBa_K592010), spisPink (BBa_K1033932), asPink (BBa_K1033933) and aeBlue (BBa_K864401), the color development is slower. The color is readily observed in both LB or on agar plates after 24-48 hours of incubation. The sequence is codon optimized for expression in E coli.
Usage and Biology
This part is useful as a reporter.
iGEM11_Uppsala-Sweden: Expression of green chromoprotein. Escherichia coli constitutively expressing cjBlue (BBa_K592011).
iGEM12_Uppsala_University: The Uppsala chromoprotein collection and RFP. The image shows pellets of E coli expressing chromoproteins eforRed BBa_K592012, RFP BBa_E1010, cjBlue BBa_K592011, aeBlue BBa_K864401, amilGFP BBa_K592010 and amilCP BBa_K592009.
iGEM17_SJTU_BioX_Shanghai:
J23119+Target3+cjBlue BBa_K2285014
J23119+Target1+cjBlue BBa_K2285018
An improved part has been constructed. Since this part is a coding sequence, we added a RBS which is on the upstream of sfGFP BBa_K515005 and terminator BBa_B1006 by PCR. What's more, our device have a stem-loop structure(called Target) following the constitutive promoter J23119, to achieve further control of cjBlue expression.

Plot 1
The area built by the circles colored in different shades of grey in the plot on the left hand side represent the QMEAN scores of the reference structures from the PDB. The model's QMEAN score is compared to the scores obtain for experimental structures of similar size (model size +/- 10%) and a Z-score is calculated. A Z-score (or standard score) is a score which is normalised to mean 0 and standard deviation 1. Thus the QMEAN Z-score directly indicates how many standard deviations the model's QMEAN score differs from expected values for experimental structures. In analogy, Z-scores are calculated for all four statistical potential terms as well as the agreement terms being part of the QMEAN score.
Plot 2
The plot in the middle shows the density plot (based on the QMEAN score) of all reference models used in the Z-score calculation. The location of the query model with respect to the background distribution is marked in red. This plot basically is a "projection" of the first plot for the given protein size. The number of reference models used in the calculation is shown at the bottom of the plot.
Plot 3
The analysis of these Z-scores of the individual terms can help identifying the geometrical features responsible for an observed large negative QMEAN Z-score. Models of low quality are expected to have strongly negative Z-scores for QMEAN but also for most of the contributing terms. Large negative values correspond to red regions in the color gradient. "Good structures" are expected to have all sliders in the light red to blue region.”
The QMEAN6 score is a composite score consisting of a linear combination of 6 terms (estimated model reliability between 0-1). The pseudo-energies of the contributing terms are given below together with their Z-scores with respect to scores obtained for high-resolution experimental structures of similar size solved by X-ray crystallography:
Scoring Function Term | Raw Score | Z Score |

Cβ Interaction Energy | -91.57 | -1.48 |
All Atom Pairwise Energy | -42903.03 | -0.85 |
Solvation Energy | -145.58 | -0.51 |
Torsion Angle Energy | -501.77 | 0.18 |
Secondary Structure Agreement | 88.2% | 1.18 |
Solvent Accessibility Agreement | 76.0% | -0.69 |

Newcastle 2019 Characterisation
The Newcastle iGEM team aimed to develop a suite of biosensors using fluorescence proteins as a reporter. Our goal was to investigated if we can measure fluorescence level correctly when reporter proteins are combined. We investigated whether mixing cultures of cells expressing different fluorescent proteins and chromoproteins would affect the fluorescence intensity of the individual fluorescent proteins. The fluorescent proteins we chose were sfGFP (BBa_K515105) and mCherry (BBa_J04450) and the chromoproteins we chose were fwYellow (BBa_K1033907) and cjBlue (BBa_K864404).
We obtained the reporter proteins from iGEM distribution kits. The resuspended DNA was transformed into E. coli DH5 alpha cells. Cells were inoculated in LB media and grown to an optical density 600 (OD600) of 0.6. Half of the culture was diluted to OD600 0.3 and the individual fluorescence levels were measured at: sfGFP - excitation 480nm and emission 507 and mCherry – excitation 580, emission 610. Each fluorescent protein was mixed with a chromoprotein individually using the culture grown to OD600 of 0.6 - sfGFP + fwYellow, sfGFP + cjBlue, mCherry + fwYellow and mCherry + cjBlue - and the fluorescence intensity was measured in a BioTek Synergy H1 Microplate Reader with a gain of 100.
The absorption wavelength maximum of cjBlue is approximately 610 nm [1]. The maximum absorption wavelength of fwYellow is 523 nm [2]. Given that the emission spectra for sfGFP ranges from 469 nm to 628 nm and the emission spectra for mCherry ranges from 551 nm to 800 nm, we would expect the mixing of fluorescent proteins with chromoproteins to decrease the fluorescence intensity of the fluorescent protein.
Figure 1. Bar chart showing the mean fluorescence intensity of E. coli DH5 alpha cells expressing sfGFP individually at an OD600 of 0.4 with standard deviations compared to the mean fluorescence intensity when mixed with cells expressing the chromoproteins fwYellow and cjBlue. Excitation 480 nm, emission 507 nm. Fluorescence intensity measured in BioTek Synergy H1 MicroPlate Reader
Figure 2. Bar chart showing the mean fluorescence intensity of E. coli DH5 alpha cells expression mCherry individually at an OD600 of 0.4 with standard deviations compared to the mean fluorescence intensity when mixed with cells expressing the chromoproteins fwYellow and cjBlue. Excitation 580 nm, emission 610 nm. Fluorescence intensity measured in BioTek Synergy H1 MicroPlate Reader
The results showed that when sfGFP was mixed with fwYellow, there was no significant difference in fluorescence intensity. Although, when sfGFP was mixed with cjBlue, there was a slight increase in fluorescence intensity but this was not significantly increased (Figure 1). When mCherry was mixed with fwYellow, there was a slight decrease in the fluorescence intensity of mCherry. Similarly, when mCherry was mixed with cjBlue, a slight decrease in the fluorescence intensity of mCherry was observed (Figure 2). Whilst there was a slight decrease in the fluorescence intensity of mCherry when mixed with the chromoproteins fwYellow and cjBlue, the difference was insignificant.
In conclusion, when fluorescent proteins are mixed with chromoproteins, this did not affect the fluorescence intensity of the fluorescent proteins. It can be concluded that despite the mixing of fluorescent proteins, when measuring fluorescence intensity, it can be confidently assumed that the results for each fluorescent protein is accurate.

We selected E.coli BL21 as our chassis and incubated the plates at 37℃ after transformation. Blue colony appeared on the plates within 12 hours, and got deeper after 24 hours.
After sonication, the cells lysate was centrifuged. Then the supernatant was subjected to ultrafiltration and His affinity chromatography. The target protein cjBLUE were collected with clearly tiffany blue color.

We performed TOF-Mass Spectrometry on the purified GST-tagged cjBlue protein. The predicted molecular mass of this protein is about 27500Da, and the exact size is 28610.8Da.
We used the BCA (Bicinchoninic acid) method to determine the concentration of cjBlue protein for quantitative characterization.
The test results showed that the concentration of cjBlue protein was 2.58 mg/ml.
Functional Parameters: Austin_UTexas
Burden Imposed by this Part:
![](https://static.igem.org/mediawiki/parts/f/fa/T--Austin_Utexas--no_burden_icon.png)
Burden is the percent reduction in the growth rate of E. coli cells transformed with a plasmid containing this BioBrick (± values are 95% confidence limits). This BioBrick did not exhibit a burden that was significantly greater than zero (i.e., it appears to have little to no impact on growth). Therefore, users can depend on this part to remain stable for many bacterial cell divisions and in large culture volumes. Refer to any one of the BBa_K3174002 - BBa_K3174007 pages for more information on the methods, an explanation of the sources of burden, and other conclusions from a large-scale measurement project conducted by the 2019 Austin_UTexas team.
This functional parameter was added by the 2020 Austin_UTexas team.
