Team NYMU Taipei assumed that a created theophylline riboswitch (Gallivan lab clone 8.1) biobrick could be fused to a GFP coding region by standard biobrick assembly techniques. While it is possible to do this, we feel that the resulting 6 nt scar sequence insertion increases the distance between the RBS and the ATG start codon, a result which is likely to cause a decrease in riboswitch efficiency (see team Taipei switch below, riboswitch highlighted in yellow, inserted biobrick “scar” region highlighted in violet, ATG start underlined).
