Banana odor generator

The banana odor generator (BBa_J45200) catalyzes the conversion of the precursor isoamyl alcohol to the odor isoamyl acetate that has a banana smell. The biosynthetic device is composed of two transcriptional devices: a constitutive transcription source (No part name specified with partinfo tag. for details.

-Protein generator producing the protein ATF1 under control of the LacI repressor.  Thus, in a LacI<sup>-</sup> ''E. coli'' strain, ATF1 is continually produced.  ATFI encodes the enzyme alcohol acetyltransferase I (AATase I), which produces acetate esters from acetyl CoA and alcohols (including isoamyl acetate from isoamyl alcohol).  This part is almost identical to <partinfo>J45220</partinfo>  except that it uses the B0030 RBS (instead of B0032 as in <partinfo>J45220</partinfo>).  The Banana Generating Device (BGD) function thus far has been to convert isoamyl alcohol into isoamyl acetate (a banana-scented compound).
+The banana odor generator (<partinfo>BBa_J45200</partinfo>) catalyzes the conversion of the precursor isoamyl alcohol to the odor isoamyl acetate that has a banana smell.  The biosynthetic device is composed of two transcriptional devices: a constitutive transcription source (<partinfo>BBa_R0040</partinfo) and an odor enzyme generator (<partinfo>BBa_J45199</partinfo).  Odor enzyme generators take as input a transcriptional signal and produce as output an enzyme that catalyzes production of an odor from a chemical precursor.
