Part:BBa_K3523007
J23116-rbs-SOD-rbs-katA
BBa_K3523007 is used to express a fusion protein, contains superoxide dismutases (SOD) and catalase. The SOD is a group of enzymes that catalyze the dismutation of superoxide radicals (O2−) to molecular oxygen (O2) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2), providing cellular defense against reactive oxygen species. The function of catalase is decomposing hydrogen peroxide into water and oxygen; serves to protect cells from the toxic effects of hydrogen peroxide. The promoter J23116 is used to initiate transcription and translation of the fusion protein.
Contribution
We use an existing Part: BBa_J23116 to start classical enzymes -- superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase(CAT) protein transcription without a terminator. The new composite Part: BBa_K3523007 can be used for topics related to the degradation of ROS in the future.
We transformative the new composite part into Escherichia coli Nissle 1917 to construct an engineered bacteria which will scavenge superoxide compounds (ROS) in the gut quickly and efficiently.
