Design Notes

The purpose of this part would be to develop cinnamic acid from natural food for E. coli. From there, if we can find the SAM:CCMT part, we could develop a cinnamon smell from E. coli merely from the cells eating their natural food.


Source

If we received such a part, it would probably be donated by Faulkner, et al. If not, the part would need to be modified to successfully express it in E. coli. GENBANK Accession Number = X12702
