Why we chose Bacterial Micro-Compartments

Future work will focus on the implementation of a multiconstruct system with EutS, EuC-Neptune, and a third construct that creates tRNA’s to integrate azo-benzene into the EutS at locations we expect to see significant steric hinderance.Instead Neptune, another light activated protein that is excited at a much longer wavelength, will be used to visualize the formation and destruction of EutS microcompartments.

Successful microscopy has confirmed the viability of EutS and EutC-eGFP in E.Coli, but the laser used to excite eGFP may also cause conformational change of azo-benzene.
