Design Notes

The first step in the insertion was amplification of SYFP2 using primers matching the USER Cassette of the Cell-Penetrating USER Cassette. To do this we used the following primers:

Forward primer: CGTGCGAUCA-ATGGTTAGCAAGGGCGAAG

Reverse primer: CACGCGAUGA-TTTATACAGCTCATCCATACCCAGGG

Subsequently the PCR product could be gel-extracted and ligated into the Cell-Penetrating USER Cassette biobrick.

Finally for the creation of a biobrick version the following set of primers were used:

Forward primer: ATCCGGAATTCGCGGCCGCTTCTAG-ATGCGTCGCCGTCGCCGTCGCCGTCGCCGTGAATGCGTGCGATC

Reverse primer: CCAATGCATTGGTTCTGCAGCGGCCGCTACTAGTATTATTA-ATGGTGATGGTGATGATGTAAG

Source

The biobrick is an improved version of the Yellow Fluorescent Protein 2 (SYFP2).
