What did we do?

                <div class="ec--p">The aim of our project is to obtain a novel bone and cartilage regeneration treatment. The path we take to carry out this was transforming E. coli to produce a fusion protein, conformed by a cellulose binding domain and a protein that induce chondrogenesis and osteogenesis, also a fusion protein conformed by CBD and an elastin like protein was design in order to obtain an elastic biomaterial. We also tried to produce cellulose in E. coli to have a better control in its production with a LacI repressed promoter. The parts are briefly described below (see the part page if more information is needed).</div>

In order to determine the cell concentration of the culture we followed the CFU protocol that basically consisted in diluting a culture to certain absorbance, measure the OD600 that has to be in a value of 0.1, and make serial dilutions to later count the colonies and calculate the CFU/mL.

<div class="ec--h2">INTRODUCTION</div>
The aim of our project is to obtain a novel bone and cartilage regeneration treatment. The path we take to carry out this was transforming E. coli to produce a fusion protein, conformed by a cellulose binding domain and a protein that induce chondrogenesis and osteogenesis, also a fusion protein conformed by CBD and an elastin like protein was design in order to obtain an elastic biomaterial. We also tried to produce cellulose in E. coli to have a better control in its production with a LacI repressed promoter. The parts are briefly described below (see the part page if more information is needed).
<div class="ec--h2">Fusion protein for bone and cartilage regeneration</div>
Coding parts
BBa_K2804000
CBD cipA with a C-terminal linker
This part was design to try to improve the imperial college (2014) CBD cipA part BBa_K1321014, because the CBD N-terminal is where the protein binds to the cellulose and the linker could interfer with this interaction.
BBa_K2804006
Superfolder GFP with six-histidine tail
The adition of an histidine tail to part BBa_K1365020 was done because it allows the characterization of fusion proteins binding sites through atomic force microscopy, thanks to its affinity to the equipment nickel tip.
BBa_K2804002
Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2)

Bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2), is a member of the transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) super-family. It is involved in chondrogenesis and osteogenesis in vitro via the expression induction of Sox9, Runx2 and its downstream markers (Zhou et al., 2016).

Composite parts
BBa_K2804001
CBD cipA fused to BMP2 under the control of LacI promoter
Therapeutic protein coupled to the CBD whose expression is regulated by the presence of IPTG in the medium.
BBa_K2804004
CBD cipA fused to sfGFP
BBa_K2804005
CBD cipA fused to sfGFP under the control of LacI promoter
BBa_K2804014
CBD cipA fused to sfGFP
BBa_K2804015
CBD cipA fused to BMP2
