Design Notes

Source

Designed from literature sequences by Kraft et al., 2007.

Derivation of the promoter

This promoter is found naturally in E. coli. This promoter is comprised of two naturally occuring promoters.

Kraft et al idea

This image shows the plasmid schematic from paper by Kraft et al.


In order to derive the promoter that is submitted, ibpAB (native) was blasted in order to locate the location in the sequence provided in the paper.

IbpAB

Clustal W alignment with native promoter region in front of ibpAB operon(P2_ibpAB)and the sequence provided in the paper (P1_proposed)

Similarly, the FxsA promoter (native) was also aligned with the entire sequence in the paper.

FxsA

These two alignments allowed us to derive the important DNA parts. There were parts eliminated. For example an internal PvoII site was eliminated as well at a T7 ribosome binding site was removed to use standard ribosome binding site. (B0034)
