Design Notes

A HindIII restriction site, a start codon and a 6xHis tag are added immediately downstream of the T7 promoter+RBS. A number of design considerations motivated the choice of the HindIII site. The HindIII site (A\AGCTT) — sandwiched between the RBS and the start codon — has a sequence very similar to the optimal sequence predicted by the sequence logo of E. coli ribosome binding sites, which can be found here. In fact, the HindIII sequence is closer to the optimal sequence than the typical 5'-TACTAG-3' mixed SpeI-XbaI restriction site formed by BioBrick assembly, improving the initial ribosome-mRNA binding and improves translation.

The 6xHis tag was codon-optimized for our protein.

This scar was added to our other part BBa_K2319000 (sfGFP-SpyCatcher under T7 expression system) using primers with overhangs.
