ThsR

Background

ThsS (BBa_K2507000) and ThsR (BBa_K2507001), both codon-optimized for E. coli, are two basic parts which belong to the two-component system from the marine bacterium Shewanella halifaxensis. ThsS is the membrane-bound sensor kinase (SK) which can sense thiosulfate outside the cell, and ThsR is the DNA-binding response regulator(RR).

Bacterial thiosulfate sensors

Thiosulfate (S2O32-) is a promising biomarker for gut inflammation. Bacterial sensors based on ThsS/R, two-component systems, can be used to diagnose colonic inflammation (colitis) through flow cytometry analysis of colon and fecal samples by responding to thiosulfate.

In a previous study, the sensitivity and specificity of thiosulfate sensors were measured.

Figure 1:Characterization of the thiosulfate sensor ThsSR. (Kristina N-M Daeffler et al. 2017)

In another literature, the ThsS/R-mediated expression of sfGFP was optimized in response to thiosulfate at transcription to increase the induction ratio and enhance the output intensity.

It tested the sensitivity of the biosensor to thiosulfate and the specificity by using a panel of metabolites in the gut. The result showed that the biosensor system on pWT-CS2R4 produced a detectable and especially specific signal for a minimal thiosulfate concentration (as low as 0.016 mM).
