Design Notes

We found that of various protease-related proteins, hslU is one of the most frequently differentially expressed in E. coli upon transformation with a heterologous circuit (it is upregulated). hslU is the ATPase subunit of the protease complex HslVU. As a result, we use the hslVU promoter as one representative of promoters related to protease expression.

The sequence inputted as a scar after the RBS is a spacer which has been shown to allow for expression with Bba_B0034 and sfGFP¹.

UNS 1 and UNS 10 flank this part in order to allow for easy Gibson assembly as detailed by Torella et al., 2014².
