Design Notes

This construct was designed to not contain any other amber stop codon but at position 31 (Lys31X) (Amberless E. coli must be used to see the effects of photocageing spyCatcher). We removed the stop codon in GFP and placed the SpyCatcher sequence after a linker sequence and included a HisTag for protein purification.

Source

SpyCatcher sequence was obtained from BBa_K1159200 and GFP from: BBa_E0040. The DNA sequence was synthesised by Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT)
