Rice Guardian

     Our team aims to make 3 engineered bacteria in Rice Guardian project. In order to detect Ax21, we need to produce it. First, we created Ax21 producing bacteria. Second, we have to create an engineered E. coli which detects Ax21. Lastly we created an engineered E. coli which kills Xanthomonas oryzae KACC10331 in addition to detecting it, an improved bacterium. (still working on)

     Strain used for Rice Guardian was Xanthomonas oryzae KACC10331, a specie of Xanthomonas oryzae pv oryzae populating in Korea. A Korean researcher named Ax21 detecing gene ColR and ColS, a different nomination of RaxR and RaxH which is commonly used. We used Xanthomonas oryzae KACC10331 and ColR, S instread of Xanthomonas oryzae pv oryzae and RaxR, H in our project. Even though ColR and ColS were used, RaxR and RaxH will be used interchangeably since they are more commonly used.



A. Ax21 Producing Bacteria

Figure.1: Plasmid construction of pAT – Ax21

     Ax21 is required for our engineered bacteria to detect Xanthomonas oryzae KACC10331. We tried to over-express functional Ax21 protein inside E. coli , but failed to purify soluble Ax21 protein. Thus we decided to display Ax21 on the membrane of E. coli . pAT is a vector designed in our laboratory to display any heterologous proteins on cell-surface of E. coli . This system uses a promoter which is regulated by arabinose. In presence of arabinose, a promoter will operate. In absence of arabinose, a promoter will not operate. By inserting ax21 gene inside pAT vector, Ax21 will be displayed on the membrane surface of E. coli .



B. Ax21 Detecting Bacteria

     Construction of Ax21 detecting bacteria plasmid

     In this system, RaxR and H which detects Ax21 protein are constitutively expressed under control of promoter BBa_J23100. If there is no Ax21 protein outside Rice guardian, basal level of mRFP will be expressed. Accoding to the latest paper related to this system, the expression of mRFP should increase up to four times when RaxRH detects Ax21.
