Our lab experience enabled us to create the final Biobrocks of our project which are a siderophore Desferrioxamine B producer and a flagellin producer.
===Proof of protein production===
Production of every enzymes involved in the pathway has been shown by a SDS page and Comassie Blue. We compared the production of proteins in different background :
- E. coli Tg1 wuthout any plasmide - E. coli Tg1 without pSB1C3 containing the RFP coding sequence - E. coli complemented with our biobrick Bba_K1951011 before and after induction. (you can observe the production of the 4 proteins on the figure below on the left; right : before induction, left : after induction)
We investigated if DesA (Lysine decarboxylase) was fonctionnal, by measurement of cadaverine using HPLC with C18 column and proofed our biobrick is a producer of this protein and makes it fonctionnal.
In the futur, we plan to test the whole pathway viability in the first hand. In a second hand, the potential adsorption of platium by our siderophore would be investigate in a rich metal medium.
