---|---|---|
additional information | firefly luciferase from Photinus pyralis is cyclized in vivo by fusing SpyCatcher at the N-terminus and SpyTag at the C-terminus. SpyTag can spontaneously form a covalent isopeptide bond with its protein partner Spy-Catcher. Circular LUC is more thermostable at 25-55°C and alkali-tolerant than the wild-type, without compromising the specific activity. Preparation of an N-terminally and C-terminally shortened form of the SpyCatcher protein and enzyme cyclization using this truncated form leads to even more thermostability of the construct than the full-length SpyCatcher form, method optimization | Photinus pyralis |
