Contents
Basic Description
This basic part encodes the PPN1 gene which is initially from Saccharomyces cerevisiae and we performed codon optimization on, is expressed in the
pBBR1MCS-terminatorplasmid. This basic part is designed to facilitate the conversion of long-chain inorganic polyphosphate (PolyP) into shorter fragments without completely degrading it to inorganic phosphate (Pi). The PPN1 enzyme exhibits both exopolyphosphatase and endopolyphosphatase activities, depending on the presence of specific metal ions. Inactivation of the PPN1 gene encoding another protein, which exhibited exopolyPase activity in the yeast (CRN and CNX strains), resulted in almost total elimination of the nuclear exopolyPase activities in both growth phases.

Origin (Organism)
The PPN1 gene was sourced from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The
pBBR1MCS-terminatorplasmid backbone is a standard vector used for gene expression in synthetic biology applications.Experimental Characterization and results
In our team’s previous research we found that the behavior of the modified S. oneidensis did not reach our expectation and the electron microscopic observation also showed an abnormal morphology of the bacterium, we postulated that too much PPK1 may lead to an abnormal charge distribution in the bacterium thus result in a decrease in the bacterium's activity and a reduction in its capacity for electricity production, so we planed to improve the situation by introducing different polyphosphate hydrolases which influence the phosphorus metabolism of S. oneidensis.
- Electricity production: Using half-cell reaction(electrochemistry) to measure the electricity production ability.
- Capacity to polymerize phosphorus: Conducting molybdate assays to determine Pi concentration.
- Conducting molybdate assays to determine Pi concentration and found PPN1 a bad capacity to polymerize phosphorus.
Details of all experiments can be found at the
Experiments section on the Wiki.

Figure 5: Statistical data on the phosphorus accumulation capacity of S. oneidensis with PPN1

Chassis and genetic
Chassis:Shewanella oneidensis MR-1.
The gene can be expressed and function properly in S. oneidensis.
Potential application
This plasmid contains PPN1 enzyme, as an important enzyme class for hydrolysis of polyP, which can be used as a key plasmid for regulating phosphorus metabolism in other microorganisms.
