OmpA-scFv(Anti-EGFR)

Introduction:

Fig.1 OmpA-N-scFv(Anti-EGFR)

To display scFv outside the E. coli, we used Lipoprotein-Outer membrane protein A (Lpp-OmpA). According to the paper reference, we chose the first 9 amino acid of Lpp and the 46~159 amino acid of OmpA.
In order to easily change various scFv DNA sequence, we added a NcoI restriction site between OmpA and.
The Fig.2 showed how we integrate Lpp-OmpA-N and scFv into NcoI restriction site. We use restriction enzyme NcoI to digest the upstream and downstream parts. After ligating two digest product, there are no mixed site in Lpp-OmpA-N-scFv.

Experiment:

Fig.4 The PCR result of the Lpp-OmpA-N+scFv. The length of DNA sequence is 1181 bp, so the PCR products should appear at 1200~1400 bp.

After receiving the DNA sequences from the gene synthesis company, we recombined each OmpA-N-scFv gene to PSB1C3 backbones and conducted a PCR experiment to check the size of each OmpA-N-scFv. The length of OmpA-N-scFv DNA sequence is 1181 bp. In this PCR experiment, OmpA-N-scFv products size should be near at 1200~1400 bp. The Fig.4 showed the correct size of the scFv, and proved that we successful ligated the scFv sequence onto an ideal backbone.
