HH-mKate - Hammerhead attached to front of mKate MammoBlock

Along with BBa_K779312, BBa_K779313, and BBa_K779314, this part introduces in vivo hammerhead ribozymes to iGEM and the registry. Hammerhead ribozymes are self-cutting strands of catalytic RNA. After a hammerhead ribozyme is transcribed in a cell, it folds into a secondary structure, which causes self-cleavage. Because of their RNA-cleaving function, hammerheads may be used to regulate protein expression and to make other RNA parts. For more information on hammerheads in general, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammerhead_ribozyme .

These four parts consist of a hammerhead ribozyme attached to an mKate florescent protein.
