| − | [https://parts.igem.org/cgi/partsdb/pgroup.cgi?pgroup=Tag Tags] are small functional sequences of amino acids. Thus far, our functional tags fall into the categories of transport out of cell, and degradation tags (ie. LVA tags) <br>

| − | Tags are often found on [https://parts.igem.org/cgi/partsdb/pgroup.cgi?pgroup=reporter Reporter parts] and other types of [https://parts.igem.org/cgi/partsdb/pgroup.cgi?pgroup=Coding Protein Coding parts].<br>

| − | Our future plans for tags involve building proteins using biobricks. To read more on this project, visit [https://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/32535 Ira Phillip's work on biobrick modification].

| − | Leucine+Valine+Alanine is an amino acid sequence which can be added to the end of a protein. This sequence marks the protein for immediate degradation by the cell. <br>
