Design Notes

This part was PCR-amplified from pSB1AT3 using the following primers. The primers have non-annealing 5'- extensions that introduce a SpeI site to the left and an XbaI site to the right of the coding region (allowing BioBrick cloning in the reverse orientation). Primer annealing sites are shown in bold.

Reverse: 5’ GCATTCTAGATTAGGTCGAGGTGGCCCGGC

The final part was cloned into vector pSB1A2. The BioBricks on this part are not wild-type, but the cut sites are still viable.

Prefix
There is no G spacer (*) between the XbaI and the Tet coding region.
Suffix
There is no T spacer (*) between the Tet coding region and the SpeI site.

Data

Once placed to the right of a reverse RBS, TetB conveys tetrcycline resistance to JM109 cells (see BBa_S03532).

Source

The tetracycline resistance coding region was PCR amplified from pSB1AT3.
