+ | In order to construct the desired plasmids, we employed the <i>E.coli</i> TOP 10 amplification method. Firstly, we performed PCR amplification using specific primers for each plasmid, which results in the generation of linearized fragments harboring the target sequences in a high copy number. These fragments were then connected into complete plasmids using enzyme-cutting and enzyme-linking procedures. After transfer to <i> Escherichia coli</i>, colony PCR was used to confirm successful construction of the plasmid. Subsequently, the plasmids were further amplified to obtain sufficient quantities for further experiments. Finally, the complete plasmids were introduced into <i>E.coli</i> wm3064 and their successful integration was verified through colony PCR analysis. <i>E.coli</i> wm3064 was a good intermediate vector for conjugative transfer. We used it to conjugative transfer the target plasmid into <i>S.oneidensis</i> MR-1, which was verified by colony pcr. | ||

Description
It is a complex component composed of tac promoter, nadE, nadD and nadM. RBS have added at the start of nadD, nadE and nadM. This component is responsible for introducing a new de novo synthetic NAD+ pathway into engineered bacteria S.o oneidensis MR-1 and enhancing the existing common synthetic pathway, thereby increasing the intracellular NAD+ content, increasing the intracellular NADH level, promoting electron transfer, and thus improving the electrical generation capacity of engineered bacteria.
Usage and Biology
Ptac
Introduction
Ptac promoter is a functional hybrid promoter commonly used in bacteria, derived from trp and lac promoters. Ptac consists of partial sequences of two promoters, which have higher binding affinity and expression activity than both of them, and can be used for the expression of exogenous genes, and is also regulated by the regulatory factors of both [1]. There is a lacIq coding region in front of the Ptac promoter sequence, which can inhibit the normal activation of the promoter in the natural state in the system, and the induction of inducers (such as IPTG) is required to remove the inhibition and thus initiate the downstream pathway expression. We got a sequence of it through corporate synthesis.
nadE
Introduction
nadE is a gene encoding NH(3)-dependent NAD(+) synthetase from Escherichia coli (strainK12) . This enzyme can catalyze the nicotinic acid adenine dinucleotide (NaAD) to NAD by consuming ATP and using ammonia as nitrogen source. This protein catalyzes the common pathway from NAMN to NAD+ and is found naturally in S.o oneidensis MR-1. By introducing exogenous nadE, we can efficiently express NH(3)-dependent NAD(+) synthetaseto promote the efficient expression of this pathway and improve the synthesis efficiency of NAD+.
Protein structure prediction and analysis
Protein structure prediction, as a research method, has extensive applications and significant importance. Firstly, this method can help scientists explore the relationship between protein structure and function, and further understand the important role of proteins in life processes. Specifically, the structural features of a protein affect its biological activity and interactions, and the two are directly related. Therefore, through protein structure prediction, we can predict the structure of proteins, determine their biological functions, predict the interaction modes between different components, and more accurately explain experimental phenomena, providing a reliable basis for experimental research and development. We try to predict the structure of NadE, its conservative structural domain and active site.
