Design Notes

One consideration we made was the strength of the RBS we wanted upstream of the reporter. Evidence can be found in the literature that a spectrum of translational activity can be generated by tampering with the Kozak sequence in plants. Future teams may wish to investigate how they can tamper with their Kozak of designing a system that requires discrete but relative expression of genes initiated by the same promoters.

Source

The source of mCherry was derived using modified primers containing the Kozak sequence designed to bind to the iGEM part BBa_J06702 (Wang,2005)
