Submitted parts
We have deposed 16 new BioBrick parts to the Registry.
All of them were cloned into the standard plasmid pSB1C3, tested and sequenced.
I. Chemotaxis
This part is designed to enable a N-acetylglucosamine based chemotaxis in Bacillus subtilis.
Design
The encoded protein is a chimera of two proteins:
- the methyl accepting Chemotaxis protein (McpA from Bacillus subtilis which is required for taxis towards glucose.
- the N-acetylglucosamine regulated methyl-accepting chemotaxis protein from Vibrio cholerae (VCD).
The chimeric protein contains the intracellular domains of McpA from Bacillus subtilis to enable the transduction of the signal:
these domains correspond to the amino acids 1-37 and 282-610.
The extracellular domain of VCD is inserted between the intracellular regions of McpA
to sense N-acetylglucosamine and corresponds to the amino acids 31-310.

Design
This expression cassette is designed for the expression of an antifungal peptide, D4E1 and for its secretion in Bacillus subtilis. It is composed of the strong, constitutive promotor of B. subtilis Pveg (K823003), strong RBS for B. subtilis (K780002), the open reading frame of D4E1 and a double terminator (B0015)

II. Binding
This part is designed to enable the binding of Bacillus subtilis to the fungi wall made of chitin.
Design
This part is composed of a Cell Wall Binding (CWB) sequence
and a Chitin Binding Domain (CBD) linked with a 6 amino acids linker.
The CWB domain has been extracted from LytC (BBa_K316030) of the iGEM 2010 Imperial College team.
The CBD is composed of the Domain 4 of the GbpA protein of Vibrio cholerae,
a protein reported to mediate bacterial attachment to chitin.
It has been shown that the Domain 4 was essential to bind chitin.

Tests
This part was tested with chitin beads. (See Binding module)
