Design notes

This part was created by fusing the heavy chain (BBa_K1189025, P02794 [UniParc]) and light chains (BBa_K1189024, P02792 [UniParc]) of human ferritin together with TALE-A (BBa_K1189022). It is expressed under the LacI promoter (BBa_J04500) and has a his-tag for protein purification. BBa_K1189021 is expressed under a strong RBS and the LacI promoter.

Source

We synthesized heavy ferrtin (BBa_K1189019), light ferritin (BBa_K1189020), and a codon optimized TALE-A (BBa_K1189022) from a commerical synthesis company. These parts were optimized for expression in E. coli K12. The ferritin di-subunit (BBa_K1189018) and TALE-A (BBa_K1189022) were extracted via PCR, the pSB1C3 backbone was isolated with PCR, and these three linear fragments were assembled into BBa_K1189021 using isothermal assembly.
