Fast-Fusion GFP-Xyle Reporter (TEV cleaveage with long linker)

This is a fast-acting reporter using the Xyle gene (BBa_K648011) fused to GFP. In its normal un-cleaved state the polymerization ability necessary for enzymatic action is inactivated. Once the fusion protein is cleaved by the TEV protease the catechol-2,3-dioxygenase enzyme encoded by the Xyle gene is able to convert catechol to the bright yellow product 2-hydroxy-cis,cis-muconic semialdehyde. This reporter is able to produce a visible color response in a matter of minutes.

This version uses the TEV cleavage site (BBa_K648008) followed by the largest of the three flexible fusion protein linkers (BBa_K648006). The linker is attached to the N-terminus of the Xyle gene.
