Design Notes

further changes:

We removed all EcoRI, XbaI, SpeI, PstI, BsmBI, BbsI and PmeI restriction sites.

We replaced the BsaI restriction sites for inserting direpeats by BsmBI sites, because – according to the manufacturer - BsmBI is better suited for digest over one hour.

We added a consensus RBS in front of the ORF for expression in bacteria

We added a His-Tag to the n-terminal end to allow protein purification.

We flanked the whole sequence with the iGEM prefix and suffix.
