Phytochelatin

Description

In the environment Hg has successive transformations which pose risks not only for microorganisms but also to macro fauna. However its known that some bacteria specie has mercury resistance, among them Serratia marcescens, Pseudomonas putida, Cupriavidus metallidurans and Entereobacter. Bacterial resistance to mercury occurs due to membrane protein expression that can act in Hg capture. Among those we can find the phytochelatin. These proteins have as main feature the interaction with heavy metals. Probably this occurs due to the great amount of cystein amino acid in this protein.


The use of natural membrane proteins is already in place and serve as a tool to anchor heterologous proteins in a system called “cell surface display”. It presents a great potential for a variety of biotech uses. By this strategy target peptides could be anchored to antibodies production, biocatalizers, bioremediation and other uses. In heavy metal bioremediation its is showed that recombinant microorganisms with modified surface, enriched with metal chelant proteins are better to cope the adsorption of metallic ions.


There are several strategies to anchor peptides in the bacterial membrane. In this project we used the most abundant protein to do so, the E. coli outer membrane protein A (OmpA) – fused with synthetic phytochelatin to bioremediation of mercury metal. In 2000 a new series of peptides serving as heavy metal adsorbants was proposed by Bae and collaborators. The strategy consisted in the use of an analogous to a natural phytochelatin without the necessity of post-transdutional modifications to work without using enzymatic routes or precursor molecules to its, in other words: a gene a protein.


In previous competition we tested the efficiency of Metal Binding Protein. In this project we design a system for Hg bioaccumulation by a synthetic phytochelatin anchored in the membrane protein OmpA of a host bacteria.
