Designs

The general formats for the basic phage and cell display would be:

Promoter-RBS-LeaderSequence-Enzyme-(Linker?)-pVIII
Promoter-RBS-INP-(Linker?)-Enzyme

Actions that ought to be carried out

General

Make or acquire fusion-ready cellulases (e.g. <partinfo>BBa_K392006</partinfo>, <partinfo>BBa_K392007</partinfo>, <partinfo>BBa_K392008</partinfo>).

Since a simple test system is desired, make fusion-ready amylase, from E. coli's own malS gene.

Make or acquire spacer/linker sequences?
- Short linkers could be ordered as oligos. Berkeley 2009 made some longer linkers which we could order.

Phage display

Acquire M13 phage.

PCR from our [http://www.neb.com/nebecomm/products/productn4018.asp M13mp18] to get:
- pVIII mature protein
- pVIII leader sequence, coding for: MKKSLVLKASVAVATLVPMLSFA.

Make or acquire fusion-ready pIII gene? (optional)
- See <partinfo>BBa_K415138</partinfo> (complete) or <partinfo>BBa_K257001</partinfo> (sans leader sequence).
- Our final fusion will need the leader sequence followed by the gene of interest followed by pIII proper.

Cell display

Make or acquire fusion-ready cell-surface display parts.
- See Berkeley 2009 (but perhaps ignore them).
- Instead, <partinfo>BBa_K265008</partinfo> (ice nucleation protein) looks promising.
- The fliC gene seems to be the target for flagella display; note that the displayed protein has to be inserted into the middle of it.

Biorefinery

To add...

Completion

Fuse whatever enzymes to cell-display parts or pVIII or maybe pIII.

???

Profit!
