Part:BBa_K133038

T7-CF-RGD-Histop

This part was used in a vector with T7 promotor. The vector with the part inserted was then transformed into bacterial cells with lambdaDE3 phage DNA, which enabled the expression of the protein, induced by IPTG.

Chimeric fusion protein, which retains the central, most antigenic segment of H. pylori (hypervariable region) flagellin FlaA, while replacing the N- and C-terminal segment by the FliC flagellin from E. coli, which is responsible for the activation of TLR5 (176 AA from the N-terminal and 99 AA from the C-terminal). Thus, combining the right parts of flagellin of E. coli with that of H. pylori enables activation of innate immunity - a characteristic that flagellin of H. pylori alone does not posess - while presenting the antigen of H. pylori for antibody production.

The protein was to be produced, therefore we added RGD His stop at the end of the construct.
