RBS CheZ N-Fusion

The RBS CheZ- Fusion BioBrick consists of a RBS fused to the E. coli CheZ motility factor that lacks a stop codon at the N-terminus (although a TAG stop codon is provided by the RFC 25 suffix). CheZ in this part contains the standard BioBrick prefix and the Freiburg (2007) fusion suffix. The N-terminal part can be fused to a reporter or other CDS. Using this BioBrick, CheZ is constitutively expressed.

CheZ is the chief regulator of the molecular events that lead the counter clockwise rotation of the flagella motor during the chemotaxis signal transduction pathway of E.coli. This counter clockwise flagella motor rotation results in bacterial swimming (instead of tumbling).
