B0034-ExpTag-Linker-Miraculin-Linker-6xHis

Construct needed to produce the protein miraculin, responsible for the taste-altering effects of the berries from the plant "Synsepalum Dulcificum".

This part is a synthetic construct, fitted with an export tag for transportation out of the cell, and a histidine tag (6x His) for purification purposes.

Applications

Miraculin can be used as a sweetener.


Characterization data from Uppsala iGEM 2013

We were not sucessful in either assembling or mutagenizing a promoter to the construct, and as such could not characterize it further.
