geranylgeranyl diphosphate synthase (B0034-CrtE)

CrtE catalyses the formation of geranylgeranyl diphosphate from farensyl pyrophosphate (FPP). CrtE is an important gene in the carotenoid pathway that turns FPP into GGPP (geranylgeranylpirophosphate)


Background

We got the operon containing CrtE in an operon from the slovenian iGEM team 2010 but the origianl part is from Edingburgh iGEM 2007. we used this operon to clone out CrtE on it´s own.
