Design Notes

This system must be grown on LB containing 10mM+ concentration of MgCl2 because the system is active at low concentrations of magnesium and will kill the cells, or select for escapers, i.e, mutate out the regulatory elements.

Source

MgtAp, mgtArb, and S7 were synthesized. Then these parts were constructed together using the Biobrick assembly method.
