Design Notes

This part is assembled as improvement of B0034-Blue Florescent Protein (BFP) (BBa_K592024). Our established part consists of these following features:

  • lacI regulated promoter (BBa_R0010) in the upstream
  • Double terminator (BBa_B0010 and BBa_B0012) in the downstream
  • SalI restriction site between the promoter and ribosome binding site
  • NdeI restriction site between the ribosome binding site and coding sequence
  • Modified blue fluorescence protein coding sequence to eliminate SalI restriction site in the middle without altering amino acid sequence

Source

We constructed this part with help of references from several previous parts (e.g. BBa_R0010, BBa_B0010, BBa_B0012, BBa_K592100, and BBa_K592024). As for the protein itself, it is derived from modification of Aequoria victoria's green fluorescent protein (GFP).
