Design Notes
- medium strong constitutive promoter
- The virG gene is mutated so it works without an rpoA subunit from Agrobacterium tumefaciens (YC Jung et al., 2004)
- double terminator (forward) to keep expression of kanamycin resistance by the constitutive promoter low
- Kanamycin resistance for screening with agar plates - the more the vir promoter is activated by VirG the more resistant the cells become to kanamycin.
Source
- virG gene synthesized by Mr. Gene (BBa_K389002)
- vir promoter from A. tumefaciens C58 (BBa_K389003)
- kanR gene made from BioBrick BBa_P1003
- constitutive promoter and double terminator from parts.igem (BBa_J23110, BBa_B0017)
