Part:BBa_K1684003

RBS + amilGFP

Yellow chromoprotein optimized for E.coli K12 with the standar RBS

Usage and Biology

Chromoproteins are a collection of proteins that express pigments of strong colors. The AmilGFP derivate from Acropora millepora, present a yellow pigment when it’s expressed. Also, the protein has a maximum absorption of 512 nm.

This version with the standar RBS is codon optimized for the expression in E.coli K12.

Results

The Figure 1 present different samples of parts used for transformation of competent cells composed by a RBS (BBa_B0034) and the optimized chromoprotein sequence amilGFP (BBa_K1684001 ).

The agarose gel shown in Line 1, the negative control; Line 2, belongs to the purified DNA of pGLO (5371 bp), was run as a positive control. Line 5 and Line 6 contain duplicate BBa_K1684003 (BBa_B0034 + BBa_K1684001) biobrick; however, a positive result is observed only in Line 5, with size of 2822 bp, while in line 6 only presents contamination, without the presence of any genetic material.
