ABSTRACT
Autotransporters constitute a large family of natural proteins that are essential for delivering many types of proteins and peptides across the outer membrane in Gram-negative bacteria. In biotechnology, autotransporters have been explored for display of recombinant proteins and peptides on the surface of Escherichia coli and have potential as tools for directed evolution of affinity proteins. Here, we investigate conditions for AIDA-I autotransporter-mediated display of recombinant proteins. A new expression vector was designed and engineered for this purpose, and a panel of proteins from different affinity-protein classes were subcloned to the vector, followed by evaluation of expression, surface display and functionality. Surface expression was explored in ten different E. coli strains together with assessment of transformation efficiencies. Furthermore, the most promising strain and expression vector combination was used in mock library selections for evaluation of magnetic-assisted cell sortings (MACS). The results demonstrated dramatically different performances depending on the type of affinity protein and choice of E. coli strain. The optimized MACS protocol showed efficient enrichment, and thus potential for the new AIDA-I display system to be used in methods for directed evolution of affinity proteins.
