ArsR repressor of the Ars Operon in E. coli K-12 MG1655


Assembly Compatibility:

    Illegal BsaI site found at 138


Design Notes

Site directed mutagenesis was performed in the coding region of ArsR at nucleotide 139 due to the presence of XbaI site. This changed the coding sequence AGATCT to AGGTCT.
