Description


OmpA-SIP-Circuit


This construct is designed for the expression of an already described engineered antinorovirus (NoV) monoclonal antibody (mAb 54.6) in fusion with LPP-OmpA. The antibody is expressed in a small immuno protein (SIP) format containing light (VL) and heavy (VH) variable domains separeted by a flexible peptide linker and constant domain (CH3) of heavy chain of human immunoglobulin A (IgA). It has already been reported that the scFv 54.6 (which compones SIP) binds a native recombinant NoV particles (VLPs) and inhibits VLP interaction with cells. Alpha isotype CH3 domain homodimerizes confering bivalent binding properties to the antibody. LPP-OmpA functions as a leader sequence and an anchor to display the scFv ot the bacterial surface.

The construct consistes of T5 Lac Operator (Bba_K875002), ribosomal binding site, LPP-OmpA, scFv 54.6 antinorovirus, Hystidine tag (6HIS), Terminator (B0015).

The expression of chimeric protein LPP-OmpA-SIP 54.6-6HIS is regulated by T5 Lac Operator (Bba_K875002). When the promoter T5 Lac O is induced with IPTG (1mM), the fusion protein LPP-OmpA-SIP 54.6-6HIS is expected to be expressed extracellularly on the bacterial surface. LPP-OmpA introduces itself into the outer membrane displaying extracellularly the antibody attached on its C-terminus.

Molecular Weight: 60 kDa.

Assembly

The sequence LPP-OmpA-SIP was obtained by synthesis.

Results

The cloning success has been verified by Colony PCR. (Fig. 1) The construct has been completely sequenced.

Gel OmpA-SIP

FIG.1 Electrophoresis in gel 1% agarose whit ethidium bromide of T5LacO-LPP-OmpA-SIP-6His-TT (blue box). Fragment LPP-OmpA-SIP-6His-TT, previously double digested with XbaI/PstI, was then cloned downstream the T5LacOperator in plasmid pSB1C3 double digested with SpeI/PstI.

The construct was tested in E.coli W3110 strain which was previously trasformed with p-REP 4 encoding for the Lac Repressor. The recombinant bacterial culture was induced at O.D.= 0.4 (2x108 bacterial cells/ml) with IPTG (1mM) at 37°C in shaker. 2ml of bacterial culture were centrifuged and the pellet was resuspended in 200μl of lysis buffer. The samples were then sonicated and boiled for 5 min. 10μl of lysates of induced, non-induced and non trasformed bacterial cultures were resolved on SDS-PAGE. The expression of fusion protein LPP-OmpA-scFv 54.6-His was tested by Western blotting with anti-6HIS antibodies (Fig. 2).

WB OmpA-SIP

FIG. 2. Expression of SIP 54.6 cloned in fusion with the LPP-OmpA leader sequence. Western blots of lysates of E.coli W3110 bacterial strain expressing the recombinant protein SIP 54.6 (60KDa), induced or non-induced with IPTG. The blot was reacted with the Affinity purified antibody goat anti-Human IgA(α).

Western blot with anti-6HIS antibodies showed the band corresponding to SIP 54.6 at the expected position in the IPTG-induced sample. In the non-induced sample, a weaker signal is also detected suggesting that the promoter is leaky; aspecific signals are also visible. Some of them are due to partially degraded protein.

Looking forward

In the next step we will clone the LPP-OmpA-SIP under the constitutive promoter BBa_J23100 and transform it in E.coli Nissle 1917.
