This hydrolase is originated from ''Citrobacter'' which can be used as reporter enzyme in synthetic biology. It catalyzes production of free inorganic phosphate and phosphoryl transfer reaction to various alcohols. We prooved that the His-tag doesn't affect the protein function. Therefore we tested the enzymatic reaction with 4-Nitrophenylphosphate and the fluorescent 4-MU-phosphate which were both converted to the respective colorimetric output. To characterize the PhoA with His tag we did a Michaelis-Menten Kinetic of the cell lysate overexpressing PhoA-His (K<sub>m</sub>= 72.0 ± 7.3 μM). In order to physically proove the presence of a His-tag we did an SDS-PAGE gel and a western blot using an anti-His antibody from mouse and an anti mouse antibody carrying a red fluorescent dye to detect the His-Tag.<br><br> |
