Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are polyoxoesters that are produced by diverse bacteria and that accumulate as intracellular granules. Phasins are proteins that can bind these granules. | Polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) are polyoxoesters that are produced by diverse bacteria and that accumulate as intracellular granules.

This part is the phaP gene from ''Ralstonia eutropha'', which encodes for a phasin, without stop codon in order to support protein fusions as a head domain. | This part is the phaP gene from ''Ralstonia eutropha'', which encodes for a phasin, without stop codon in order to support protein fusions as a head domain. | ||
It can be used as a N-terminal affinity tag for a target protein that has to be fused downstream of the phasin. The tagged protein adhere to the surface of the PHA granules via the phasin tag, which enables the target protein purification. | It can be used as a N-terminal affinity tag for a target protein that has to be fused downstream of the phasin.

Than we performed a 21 hours' experiment with measurements of absorbance and green fluorescence every five minutes with TECAN Infinite F200. Each value shown is the mean of three measurements, from GFP data that of a non-fluorescent culture (negative control) was subtracted; cultures were shaken for 15 seconds every five minutes. | Than we performed a 21 hours' experiment with measurements of absorbance and green fluorescence every five minutes with TECAN Infinite F200.

All cell cultures showed a similar growth curve and doubling time was computed as described [[Team:UNIPV-Pavia/Parts/Characterization#Doubling_time_evaluation|here]] in order to have informations about the burden due to synthesis of such fusion proteins. It's possible to see that all doubling time are very similar; it's possible to assert that the expression of these BioBrick parts doesn't cause abnormal stress to the cells. | All cell cultures showed a similar growth curve and doubling time was computed as described [[Team:UNIPV-Pavia/Parts/Characterization#Doubling_time_evaluation|here]] in order to have informations about the burden due to synthesis of such fusion proteins.

The mean protein synthesis rate was also computed over the growth exponential phase, showing an appreciable GFP production rate that is about a half of the positive control. | The mean protein synthesis rate was also computed over the growth exponential phase, showing an appreciable GFP production rate that is about a half of the positive control. | ||
