Design Notes

The effectiveness of the atrazine riboswitch is determined by the ability of the RNA 'loop' to hide the RBS preventing translation. The sequence of bases within the riboswitch will determine the formation of the loop and its leakiness.

Source

The CheZ gene was isolated from genomic DNA using PCR where the forward primers in the reaction contained the sequence for the atrazine riboswitch.
