Design Notes

The purpose of this part is to produce limonene in E. coli.

We used LIMS1 CDS from part BBa_I742110 and inserted constitutive promoter BBa_J23108 and a sRBS upstream of the CDS. Limonene synthase 1 converts farnesyl-diphosphate to (+)-limonene, which is a component of lemon scent.

The promoter and RBS were designed as oligos, aligned, digested, and ligated. The finished plasmid is in standard BioBrick format.
