Abstract

The anchoring of proteins to the cell surface of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) using genetic techniques is an exciting and emerging research area that holds great promise for a wide variety of biotechnological applications. This paper reviews five different types of anchoring domains that have been explored for their efficiency in attaching hybrid proteins to the cell membrane or cell wall of LAB. The most exploited anchoring regions are those with the LPXTG box that bind the proteins in a covalent way to the cell wall. In recent years, two new modes of cell wall protein anchoring have been studied and these may provide new approaches in surface display. The important progress that is being made with cell surface display of chimaeric proteins in the areas of vaccine development and enzyme- or whole-cell immobilisation is highlighted.

  • Fusion of the C-terminal LPXTG containing domain of PrtP with several reporter proteins resulted in the surface exposure of the fusion proteins.

    “Fusion of the C-terminal LPXTG containing domain of PrtP with several reporter proteins resulted in the surface exposure of the fusion proteins [28,29].”

    From Positive role of cell wall anchored proteinase PrtP in adhesion of lactococci (2007) · cites this paper as [29]

    The section on PrtP anchors reports that the Lb. paracasei sorting signal surface-displayed several fused antigens in Lactobacillus species. But it also reports that TTFC fused to the L. lactis PrtP anchor was not detectable on intact cell surfaces and remained in the membrane. The claim therefore overgeneralizes the result across PrtP anchors. (LLM, conf=0.87)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
