invasin(1-625aa)
The invasin protein of Yersinia pseudotuberculosis has been utilized for heterologous surface display. Y. pseudotuberculosis invasin promotes bacterial entry by binding to host cell integrins. It is a 986-residue protein of which the 500 N-terminal aa are thought to reside in the outer membrane. The C-terminal 497 residues, which make up the extracellular part, are involved in the binding to integrin. Nakajima and co-workers developed a system for expression of random peptides on the cell surface of E. coli by creation of a fusion hybrid between a peptide and the invasin protein. The fusion protein consists of the first 625 aa of invasin, a six aa long proline spacer, and a decamer of random peptides flanked by cysteine residues.
