Design Notes

PelB Silver-fusion compatible secretion tag in pSB1A2. This part has been sequenced.

Another PelB BioBrick is available in the registry as BBa_J32015. However, we were unable to determine whether this part was Silver-fusion compatible. It was decided that a new version of this Biobrick be made to ensure Silver-fusion compatibility. Please refer to this website for more information: http://www.openwetware.org/wiki/Silver:_BB_Strategy

To construct the OmpA sequence, complimentary forward and reverse oligonucleotides were synthesized. These strands were then annealed together. The oligonucleotides were designed so that the Silver fusion prefix and suffix sequences were appended onto the end of the sequence. This parts was then cut with EcoRI and SpeI and ligated into a BioBrick vector.
