Part:BBa_K3858014

antiGFP-High encoding

Recombinant nanobody against GFP. High affinity compared with antiGFP-Low.

Usage and Biology

In 2021, GreatBay_United tried to display this antibody onto the yeast surface.

There are two kinds of construction: Solely expression the antibody or fusion expression with GFP. To display onto surface, an existing part (Aga2) were used to lead the recombination protein to the cell membrane.

anti-GFP expression cassette

For the fusion expression version, the GFP part and anti-GFP part were linked with HCV protease cutting site. Thus, if both complex and antiGFP were successfully displayed on the surface, they will be able to sense the HCV NS3 protease in solution. The protease would cut and release the antiGFP linked to GFP, and the solely expressed anti-GFP would had chance to connect with GFP. this interaction would lead to the macroscopical agglutination phenomenon when we mix two kinds of engineered yeast together and also HCV protease.
