TliA has four glycinerich repeats (GGXGXD) in its C-terminus, which appear in many ABC transporter-secreted proteins.Export of fusion proteins with the whole TliA through the ABC transporter was evident on the basis of lipase enzymatic activity. Upon supplementation of E. coli with ABC transporter, EGF-TliA was excreted into the culture supernatant.Whole TliA were attached to C-termini of model
proteins and enabled the export of the model proteins such as GFP and EGF which has 3 disulfide bonds in E. coli supplemented with ABC transporter. Activity domain (residues 1–268) and secretion/chaperon domain (residues 279–476). In our experiment, we observed that TliA fused proteins were excreted
to supernatant culture succesfully by detecting lipase activity with tributyrin and spectrophotometric detection
with the substrate p-nitrophenyl phosphate at 420 nm. At the experiments, Tlia fused proteins were excreted ten-
fold more with ABC transporter PrtDEF of Erwinia chrysanthemi.
