Part Collection
CsgA multitool box
Biofilms are communities of bacteria that live together on a surface, surrounded by a protective layer, like dental plaque. Biofilms consist up to 85% of nanowires. These nanowires are composed of CsgA proteins. All the parts in this collection contain the CsgA gene controlled by a rhamnose inducible promoter. However, most have an additional function, like the His-tag for purification, or the hydroxyapatite tag, that gives the CsgA proteins better adhesive properties to teeth, thereby closer resembling dental plaque. Additionally, several biobricks contain RFP or GFP genes, to improve detection.
