Endo-β-galactosidase an enzyme that catalyzes the cleavage of the A and B type blood antigens (trisaccharides) such that the remaining sugar can be classified as a H antigen, which the anti-A and anti-B antibodies are unable to recognize and thus does not elicit an immune response in the human body. Thus, the enzyme can convert both A and B blood types to universal O type. The enzyme has been previously shown to successfully convert A,B, and AB type erythrocytes to O type but lacked a cost-effective method of production.

Contruct Design

Endo-β-galactosidase an enzyme that catalyzes the cleavage of the A and B type blood antigens (trisaccharides) such that the remaining sugar can be classified as a H antigen, which the anti-A and anti-B antibodies are unable to recognize and thus does not elicit an immune response in the human body [1]. Thus, the enzyme can convert both A and B blood types to universal O type.

We obtained the amino acid sequence of the endo-β-galactosidase protein, derived from Clostridium perfringens, from the iGEM DNA Repository Plate (BBa_K1483001), which served as our Open Reading Frame (ORF). We attached a T7 promoter, derived from the T7 phage, and strong ribosome binding site (RBS; BBa_K525998) upstream of the open reading frame (ORF). The composite gene was synthesized through DNA cloning.


Results

We obtained the amino acid sequence of the Endo-β-Galactosidase protein from the iGEM DNA Repository Plate (BBa_K1483001), as entered into the iGEM parts collection database by the Tuebingen iGEM team in 2014

In order to test protein expression of the enzyme, we added a T7 promoter and a strong ribosome binding site (RBS; BBa_K525998) upstream of the protein amino acid sequence to create a part BBa_K3717014.

However, the post-ligation PCR gel run showed no DNA, indicating that we were unsuccessful in adding the promoter and RBS to the DNA. Hence, we could not test protein expression of DNA part BBa_K1483001.
