In a cell-surface display (CSD) system, successful display of a protein or peptide is highly dependent on the anchoring motif and the position of the display in that anchoring motif. In this study, a recombinant bacterial CSD system for manganese (Mn) and cobalt (Co) recovery was developed by employing OmpC as an anchoring motif on three different external loops. A portion of Cap43 protein (TRSRSHTSEG)₃ was employed as a manganese and cobalt binding peptide (MCBP), which was fused with OmpC at three different external loops. The fusions were made at the loop 2 [fusion protein-2 (FP2)], loop 6 (FP6), and loop 8 (FP8) of OmpC, respectively. The efficacy of the three recombinant strains in the recovery of Mn and Co was evaluated by varying the concentration of the respective metal. Molecular modeling studies showed that the short trimeric repeats of peptide probably form a secondary structure with OmpC, thereby giving rise to a difference in metal recovery among the three recombinant strains. Among the three recombinant strains, FP6 showed increased metal recovery with both Mn and Co, at 1235.14 (1 mM) and 379.68 (0.2 mM) µmol/g dry cell weight (DCW), respectively.
