Design Notes

When examining the structure of the TMS from A. Paul and the GFP aptamer from B. Shui it became apparent, that A. Paul had included a linker between the GFP aptamer and the TMS, consisting of GGACAGATCT before the aptamer, and the complementary AGATCTGTCC after the aptamer, although the function of this linker was not specified in their paper. Because the mechanism of repression by GFP on the TMS was not fully understood, the linker was included in the BioBrick.
