Surface Engineered Bacteria Engineered to Bind and Signal Fusion Protein OmpA – C terminal insertion OmpA-Loop1 insertion AIDA-1 – N terminal insertion FecA – loop insertion Membrane Protein Add a slide about the concept of the library. 1
Selecting/enriching for surface engineered bacteria Direct Selection Direct magnetic beads Indirect selection MACS FACS
Various Cell Sorting Experiments with his and strep2 - Indirect Bead Assays Various Cell Sorting Experiments with his and strep2 - Assay Results Direct Bead Assays
After Separation Test: Cell Sorting with AIDA1 + sender constructs (with his and strep2) - Assay Results Before Separation strep2 his
Results: Cell Selection Assays are a Success! Selecting for surface engineered bacteria (such as his and strep2) is possible through either direct or indirect cell separation.
