lacZ, B. subtilis optimized + RBS + Term

lacZ in Freiburg standard, Bacillus subtilis codon optimized with ribosome binding site and terminator (B0014).

lacZ is a β-galactosidase which cleaves the substrates X-Gal (5-bromo-4-chloro-indolyl-β-D-galactopyranoside) and ONPG (ortho-Nitrophenyl-β-galactoside).

lacZ under the control of Pspac in pSB1C3. Plate was induced with xylose.

This BioBrick was used for promoter evaluation in B. subtilis.

prefix: GAATTCCGCGGCCGCTTCTAGATAAGGAGGAACTACTATGGCCGGC

suffix: ACCGGTTAATACTAGTAGCGGCCGCTGCAGT

We used this lacZ gene to evaluate our promoters PliaG, PliaI, Pveg in pSB_Bs4S with β-galactosidase-assays for B. subtilis. This gene also works in E. coli which was qualitively seen by blue colonies on LB-Agar-plates that contain X-Gal.
