Characterization of performance

Below we can see the beta-carotene production levels on a per cell basis for different combinations of parts involved in beta-carotene synthesis. These are compared with a wild type control. tHMG1 is used to funnel more initial substrate into the pathway and although useful, was not submitted as a part. 2I indicates that two copies of crtI were used.
