Optimized Blue Chromoprotein
This is the original blue chromoprotein sequence (BBa_K592009) that has been codon optimized. The original part has been made a basic part with the promoter and RBS sequence, BBa_K608002 in the pSB1C3 BioBrick backbone. Codon optimization allows it to function more efficiently in E.coli, therefore creating a lower metabolic burden on the cells that it is encoded in. When this sequence is put into a vector and transformed into a plasmid it shows a blue phenotype. Codon optimization also makes this part more stable, as the color is expected to be maintained for a longer period of time than the original, making it a good candidate to use as a biosensor for things like toxins, such as lead.
Experimental Design
The process of attempting to improve the stability of the original blue chromoprotein consisted of performing a digestion of the K608002 vector and the codon optimized blue chromoprotein, which was ordered as a G-block from the Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) website.

Through the codon optimization of this part, in comparison to the BBa_K592009 original chromoprotein, the sequenced codon optimized blue chromoprotein shows minimal mutations.
