OBJECTIVE
QALPETGEE sortase's substrate was anchored on the cell surface of yeast Pichia pastoris using EGFP to detect its expression.
METHODS
The gene-encoding QALPETGEE-linker-EGFP was amplified by PCR by using pcDNA/myc-his-EGFP as a template, and then inserted into shuttle vector pKFS. Then, the vectors were introduced into Pichia pastoris GS115. After cultivation, recombinant cells were verified with fluorescence microscopy and sortase activity was detected by fluorescence spectrophotometer from variety of free EGFP's fluorescence intensity.
RESULTS
The green cells were observed by fluorescence microscopy, enhancing over time. Fluorescence spectrophotometer convinced that fluorescence intensity of free EGFP in the reaction supernatant increased from 187.67 +/- 2.16 to 273.47 +/- 2.14 after interaction of sortase and its substrates.
CONCLUSION
The result suggests that sortase's substrates have been displayed on yeast successfully, which could be used for sortase activity assay.
