SpeB (Agmatinase)
Usage and Biology
This part codes for the SpeB gene from E.coli. The gene codes for agmatine ureohydrolase. The enzyme is responsible for the catabolism of agmatine. It converts agmatine into urea and putrescine, and is the second step in the metabolic pathway that converts arginine into putrescine (Morris., et 1969). The 2024 Oneonta iGEM team designed the sequence for use in a base producing circuit. When co-expressed with SpeA (BBa_K5097010) it will construct the pathway from turning arginine into putrescine. Acidic conditions will be neutralized with the production of putrescine.

This gene sequence has been altered to make the SpeB gene RCF10 compatible. To do this, we removed an internal PstI restriction site, changing the nucleotide at position 318 from a G to an A, without affecting the amino acid sequence.
