C. metallidurans lead transport protein - pbrT

This part contains coding sequence of Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34 lead transport protein (pbrT, Gene ID: 3170370, Uniprot: Q58AJ4) codon-optimized for Escherichia coli Nissle 1917. pbrT is a lead(II) uptake protein containing a cytochrome domain and a transmembrane metal transport domain [1]. It belongs to the ILT (Iron Lead Transporter) family. This protein is a part of the lead (Pb) resistance operon in plasmid pMOL30 [2]. Expression of pbrT leads to uptake of lead into the cytoplasm to reduce interaction of free Pb(II) with side chains of membrane and periplasmic proteins, which would cause extensive cellular damage [3]. The part was evaluated in the composite parts BBa_K3282005 and BBa_K3282007 expressed in pUC19 backbone. The composites have the same RBS (BBa_J61109), terminator (BBa_B0012) with two different promoters T7 (BBa_I719005) and Tac (BBa_K3282006). The four composite parts were tested to determine their Lead uptake capability.
