Device for Testing New Promoters via Golden Gate Assembly

This part will allow users to clone and test new promoters without gel purification or other preparation of DNA - it is ideal for teaching labs. It is a destination vector for Golden Gate Assembly (GGA) using BsmBI and Ligase. A new promoter can be derived from synthetic oligos, PCR, or a plasmid clone. The new promoter must be flanked by BsmBI sites that produce the 4 nt overhangs required for assembly. The left site must be 5' CGAC 3' and the right site must be 5' GCGG 3'. Successful GGA assembly replaces the double terminator with the new promoter. Upon assembly, a functional new promoter with activity to the right should cause RFP expression. A promoter with activity to the left will cause GFP expression. The part incorporate the BD18 bicistronic translational junction (see Part:BBa_J119024) engineered by Vivek Mutalik and The BIOFAB Team at biofab.org.
