Design Notes

・crtZ is under Arabinose inducible promoter.

・crtZ is located at upstream of crtEBIY because the suffix of BBa_K274210(crtEBIY) is out of order and it is impossible to bring it at downstream.

Source

Gene coding sequences come from Pantoea ananatis (formerly Erwinia uredovora) (Accession number D90087), a type of Gram negative Enterobacteriaceae.

This Composite Biobrick is created by standard assembly of Part BBa_K395702, Part BBa_K274210.
