AnAFP contributed by Fudan iGEM 2023

Ammopiptanthus nanus antifreeze protein (AnAFP) is an antifreeze protein derived from Ammopiptanthus nanus. It protects the stability of membrane structures under cold conditions by binding to or dissociating from the membrane. It prevents the coagulation of macromolecules and plays a regulatory role by binding to or dissociating from calcium ions^[1].

Usage and Biology

We heterologously expressed codon-optimized AnAFP in E.coli, endowing it with antifreeze capability.

Characterization

Sequencing map

Figure1 Sequencing map of AnAFP

Sequencing was performed using the two primers：T7: 5-TAATACGACTCACTATAGG-3 and Kan-F: 5-ATTCTCACCGGATTCAGT-3.

AnAFP Antifreeze Capability

Figure2 Colonies at 0,24,48,72 and 96 hours of cold treatment at 0 °C

The experimental group consists of E. coli BL21 DE3 expressing AnAFP, the control group comprises E. coli BL21 DE3 transformed with the empty vector PET28. All the groups are cultured overnight. After reaching an OD value of 1.0, they are subjected to cold treatment at 0 °C.Samples are taken at 0, 24, 48, 72 and 96 hours during cold treatment and are diluted 10^5 times in ddH2O for CFU counting. CFU counting is performed with the help of imageJ.

Figure3 Survival curves under cold treatment at 0 °C

For each tube of cold-treated E. coli, the colony count at the measurement time is divided by the colony count at 0 hours to obtain the survival rate of E. coli in that tube at that specific time. The average survival rate for the same type of bacteria is then calculated, and survival curves for each group of E. coli were plotted.
