POR gene for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Phytobrick)

This basic part contains the coding sequence of the POR (B3-B4). This part is codon-optimized for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and was built as part of the CYPurify Collection. In combination with a promoter like AβSAP(i) (BBa_K4806013) and a terminator like tRPL23 (BBa_K3002006)*, this level 0 part leads to expression of the POR. To detect the target protein a tag like HA-tag (BBa_K3002017)* is recommended.


Constructs

Fig.1 Construct design
We designed 7 level 2 constructs containing CYP3A4 using the modular cloning system (MoClo).


Here are the links to the built constructs:

  • 1. The POR gene with FLAG-tag for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Phytobrick) (BBa_K4806210)
  • 2. The POR gene with HA-tag for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Phytobrick) (BBa_K4806209)
  • 3. The POR gene with mStop for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Phytobrick) (BBa_K4806211)
  • 4. The POR gene with mNeonGreen for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Phytobrick) (BBa_K4806213)
  • 5. The POR gene for expression in the chloroplast for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Phytobrick) (BBa_K4806212)
  • 6. CYP3A4 tandem for expression together with the POR for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Phytobrick) (BBa_K4806214)
  • 7. CYP2D6 tandem for expression together with the POR for Chlamydomonas reinhardtii (Phytobrick) (BBa_K4806215)

These constructs were transformed into Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. Besides the POR coding sequence the constructs contain either the AβSAP(i)-promotor (BBa_K4806013) or the PSAD-promotor (BBa_K4806010),either the FLAG-tag (BBa_K4806012), the HA-tag (BBa_K3002017)* or mNeonGreen (BBa_K4806006) for detection or mStop (BBa_K4806009) and the tRPL23-terminator (BBa_K3002006)*. Additionally, one construct contains the CTPPSAD transit peptide to the chloroplast (BBa_K4806014). The resistance cassette for spectinomycin or hygromycin is already built in the level 2 vector pMBS807 we are using (exept for the tandem construct). The usage of this vector allows the direct assembly of level 0 parts to level 2 constructs, facilitating the cloning time (Niemeyer & Schroda, 2022).

Results

We detected the expression of the POR with HA-tag (BBa_K4806200) via immunoblotting.

Fig.2 Expression of the POR with HA-tag
(a)Level 2 MoClo construct for expression of the POR containing the HA-tag was designed (see Fig.1 for part description)
(b) Picture of resulting western blot. The POR is marked by a black arrow, the white arrow marks a cross reaction of antibodies. For reference, the UVM4 recipient strain and a strain expressing the HA-tagged ribosomal chloroplast 50S protein L5 (RPL5) were used as a negative and positive control, respectively

For detection the UVM4 strain was transformed with the construct in (a). 30 hygromycin-resistant transformants were cultivated in TAP medium and samples were taken after 3 days. Whole-cell proteins were extracted and analyzed by SDS-PAGE and immunoblotting using an anti-HA antibody. The expression of the POR (~ 77 kDa) is visible.


We detected the expression of the POR with FLAG-tag (BBa_K4806201) via immunoblotting.
