The following is a growing documentation of the Biobrick naming conventions.

Naming your bricks

Don't sweat this too much, just choose which category one might best describe your piece, tack on the corresponding naming convention (see below) and then go ahead and make it!

Some naming conventions

General

BBa = BioBrick [version] 'alpha'

Part Types

	BBa_B... = Terminators and generic basic parts
	BBa_C... = Protein coding parts
	BBa_E... = Reporter parts
	BBa_F... = Signalling parts
	BBa_G... = Primer parts
	BBa_I... = IAP [http://parts.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/Iap_2003 2003], [http://parts.mit.edu/wiki/index.php/Iap_2004 2004] project parts
	BBa_J... = [http://parts.mit.edu/wiki iGEM] project parts
	BBa_M... = Tag parts
	BBa_P... = Protein Generator parts
	BBa_Q... = Inverter parts
	BBa_R... = Regulatory parts
	BBa_S... = Intermediate parts
	BBa_V... = Cell strain parts

Plasmids

Plasmids have their own nomenclature
