Design Notes

There are HA tag(s) available for characterisation of the LuxR, LuxI and invasin proteins respectively produced via western blot. Note that the stop codons for LuxR BBa_C0062, LuxI BBa_C0061 and Invasin BBa_K1897010 is shifted to after the HA tag.

Also, the transcriptional terminators rrnBT1 (from BBa_B0010) + BBa_B0012 for LuxR was derived from BBa_B0015, with the first 8 base pairs removed.

Source

LuxR was obtained from biobrick part BBa_C0062, which was derived from Vibrio fischeri. The promoter was synthesized based on the sequence obtained from BBa_J23119. The ribosome binding site (RBS) was synthesized based on the sequence obtained from BBa_B0030. The transcription terminators were synthesized based on the sequence obtained from BBa_B0015.

LuxI was obtained from biobrick part BBa_C0061, which was derived from Vibrio fischeri. The promoter was synthesized based on the sequence obtained from BBa_R0062. The ribosome binding site (RBS) was synthesized based on the sequence obtained from BBa_B0030. The transcription terminators were synthesized based on the sequence obtained from BBa_B0015.

Invasin is derived from Yersinia pseudotuberculosis, from the coding sequence [Genbank M17448.1] (see BBa_K1897010. The promoter was synthesized based on the sequence obtained from BBa_R0062. The ribosome binding site (RBS) was synthesized based on the sequence obtained from BBa_B0030. The transcription terminators were synthesized based on the sequence obtained from BBa_B0015.
