Design Notes

The gene traI(Q63G) is derived from Agrobacterium tumefaciens and encode a enzyme necessary for synthesizing Quorum Sensing signaling molecules ([N-]acyl-homoserine lactones, AHLs), 3OC8 HSL (hereafter C8), in E. coli. This part constitutively produces C8.

The mutation was introduced wild type traI(BBa_K553001).

The DNA sequences of traI (Q63G) is optimized for expressing in E. coli considering the codon usage.


Source

Mutation was newly introduced on the BBa_K553001 by PCR.
