INP.Si4 Silica Binding Complex

Introduction

Fig.1 Illustrated schematic of the Si4 Binding Peptide binding presented on the C-terminus of INP as it bind with a silica microsphere.

This biobrick was designed utilise Ice Nucleation Protein to express the Si4 Binding Peptide on the extracellular surface of the plasma membrane of E.coli cells.

Usage and Experimental Data

Fig.1: Monitoring the growth rate of cells containing Si4 Binding Peptide attached to the C-terminus of INP, labelled here as Device 2, within the PSB1C3 standard iGEM submission plasmid. Although the graph shows a log and a lag phase for the cells containing the insert plasmid, the absorbance reached in log phase is very low compared to the control cells.
