Part:BBa_K2255000
Enoyl-CoA hydratase
This part is the enoyl-CoA hydratase involved in the synthesis of the 2-cis-decenoic acid.
Usage and Biology
This biobrick was created to produce the enoyl-CoA hydratase, whom is an enzyme performed the formation of a double bond at the β-carbon of the decneoic acid.
Production of the enoyl-CoA hydratase by E. coli
The functionnality verification of this part was done by testing if E.coli was able to produced the desire enoyl-CoA hydratase and indentify by mass spectrometry if we got the right enzyme.
Therefore, E.coli DH5α cells were transformed with a pSB1C3 plasmid containing the biobrick BBa_K864400 which is a IPTG inducible promoter with a strong RBS and our BBa_K2255000, in order to produced the enoyl-CoA hydratase with an IPTG controled expression.
As you can see in the SDS PAGE, when we add IPTG in the LB-medium we observed the sur-expression of the protein (show with a black arrow) in comparaison of a native LB-medium where this massive expression is not observed. The enoyl-CoA hydratase has a molecular weight of approximatively 40 kDa, as our IPTG induced protein appeared at this weight we can assume that it correspond to our enoyl-CoA hydratase. But we need futher analysis to confirm this hypothesis.
After, the SDS-PAGE strip containing a IPTG-induced protein was cut off the gel and anlysed by mass spectroscopy (MS/MSMS) after a tryptic digestion. The mass spectroscopy analysis identify this protein as the enoyl-CoA hydratase coming from Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 (NCBI database TaxID=208964). The identification was correct form the N-termini to the C-termini, with a good coverage of 86.65%.
Thus, BBa_K2255000 is a functional biobrick that will allow us production of Pseudomonas aeruginosa's enoyl-CoA hydratase.

Characterization: YAU-China 2019
We (YAU-China)verified this part. The gene contained in this part is an important gene for Pseudomonas aeruginosa to synthesize cis-2-decenoic acid, an automatic inducer of biofilm dispersion. Therefore, we carried out the following experiments: (1) We transformed the plasmid into DH5 α of Escherichia coli. (2) The crude extract of cis-2-decenoic acid was obtained by organic reagent extraction. (3) Using the crude extract of cis-2-decenoic acid to disperse the biofilm.
