Design Notes

We selected a rhamnose-inducible promoter (BBa_K902065) with a strong ribosome binding site (BBa_B0034), since this promoter is titratable and would allow for controlled expression of the fimH adhesin.

We edited out an illegal PstI cut site in fimH through site-directed mutagenesis.

The SpyTag binding motif was inserted into the fusion site of fimH via site-directed mutagenesis.

Source

fimH comes from E. coli K-12 genome
