SdyTag can achieve covalent binding of proteins through Tag-Catcher interaction.
SdyTag is a fibronectin-binding protein. It can cooperate with SdyCatcher to achieve covalent binding of proteins through Tag-Catcher interaction. SdyTag and SdyCatcher can also be used alongside SpyTag-SpyCatcher partners, to demonstrate kinetically controlled directed protein ligation, domain specific protein circularization and macromolecular assembly [1].
Usage and Biology
We devised the fusion expression of SdyTag with spNW15 and SnoopCatcher (namely SnCSdT). We employed SdyTag and SdyCatcher to link two proteins - SCSdC-mCh[1-10] and SnCSdT.
We also employed AlphaFold to predict the structure of the protein constituted by SdyTag, spNW15, and SdyCatcher, and discovered that the SdyTag was successfully bound to SdyCatcher(Figure 1).

Characterization
We used SDS-PAGE to test whether the protein containing SdyTag had been expressed successfully(Figure 2). The molecular weight of SnCSdT (containing SdyTag) is 42.1 kDa. And we purified the target protein with a molecular weight of approximately 43 kD (Lane 5 - Lane 8), which demonstrated that we had successfully expressed the protein containing SdyTag.
