Summary: We adapted the part to be able to assemble transcriptional units with the Golden Gate assembly method
Documentation: In order to create our complete [http://2018.igem.org/Team:Valencia_UPV/Part_Collection part collection] of parts compatible with the Golden Gate assembly method, we made the part BBa_K2656012 which is this part adapted to the Golden Gate technology.

Characterization of the this part was performed with the transcriptional unit BBa_K2656104, which was used in a comparative RBS expression experiment with composite parts BBa_K265610 and BBa_K2656101. They all were assembled in a Golden Braid alpha1 plasmid using the same promoter, CDS and terminator.

By using this [http://2018.igem.org/Team:Valencia_UPV/Experiments#exp_protocol experimental protocol], we have obtained the parameters to valide our [http://2018.igem.org/Team:Valencia_UPV/Modeling#models constitutive model]and rationale choose its optimized values based on each RBS.

Table 1. Optimized parameters for the TU with BBa_K2656008 RBS.
Parameter	Value
Translation rate p	p = 0.02889 min-1
Dilution rate μ	μ = 0.0118 min-1

We have also calculated the relative force between the different RBS, taking BBa_K2656009 strong RBS as a reference. Likewise, a ratio between p parameters of the different RBS parts and p parameter of the reference RBS has been calculated.

Relative strength	0.032
p parameter ratio (pRBS/pref)	0.032
