Lactoccocus Parts

    BBa_K1677103: LysM-INV (Lactococcus)
    • This protein-coding part encodes invasin tailored for use in Lactococcus species.The signal peptide region of Listeria monocytogenes was exchanged for a lactococcal signal peptide. The aim of this is localise the invasin protein to the outer membrane when used in Lactococcus species. The LysM (lysine motif) protein domain embeds itself in the membrane, presenting the attached protein to the extracellular environment. The invasin gene was codon-optimised for expression in L. lactis. This part was assembled through Gibson assembly of three g-blocks designed with 20-30bp overlapping regions.
    BBa_K1677101: LLO (Lactococcus)
    • This part is listeriolysin codon-optimised for expression in Lactococcus. By co-expressing with the above LysM-INV, Lactococcus species can enter into mammalian cells.
