SpyCatcher can achieve covalent binding of proteins through Tag-Catcher interaction.

SpyCatcher comes from the spontaneous isopeptide bond domain in streptococcus pyogenes fibronectin-binding protein FbaB. It can cooperate with SpyTag to achieve covalent binding of proteins through Tag-Catcher interaction. The robust reaction conditions and irreversible linkage of SpyTag-Catcher provide a targetable lock in cells and a stable module for new protein architectures.

Characterization

The theoretical molecular weight of NW50 is 123.9kDa[1], and the actual molecular weight size verified by SDS-PAGE in literature and practical experiments is 150kDa. Due to the large molecular weight of the protein, NW50 is prone to dimerization during actual protein extraction. Protein dimerization can be minimized by adding the detergent Triton X-100 to the refined extraction buffer and reducing the nickel column elution time during the refined extraction process. It should be used as soon as possible after protein extraction to prevent the protein from self-dimerizing after a period of time(Figure 1). A more specific exploration of protein dimerization conditions can be found in the engineering section of iGEM24_BNU-China.
