GSK tag

GSK tag was constructed by Julie Torruellas Garcia et al. It is phosphorylated only in eucaryotic cells. So, we can figure out if protein was injected in eucaryotic cells by detecting phosphorylated GSK tag. GSK tag is derived from first 13aa of GSK-3β. Because of it's small size, the interference in tagged protein should be at minimum. We removed present Spe I site in the sequence by silent mutation.

It was reported that GSK tag can be added to N terminus, C terminus and anywhere in between of the protein. T3S signal should be on N terminus, we inserted GSK tag between T3S signal and Bsa I cloning site.

Investigation of T3SS-injectable proteins

Here we will discuss the structure of proteins which are injected and which are not. We tried eight different proteins: mnt repressor, Gal4, RFP, GFP, Cre DNA recombinase, (CCR5) transmembrane, LacI and Luciferase. All were chosen from biobrick distribution which shows their significant importance for iGEM.

Our main concern was not with the size the protein but its stability. Previous research show that proteins like Zinc-Finger are were stable and couldn't be injected. Stability prevents unfolding by T3SS chaperons. Our asortment includes Gal4 which is representative of stable proteins.
