Platform for terminators analysis under the control of T7 promoter

This part is used to analyse terminators: two subsequent fluorescent proteins (mCherry and A206K Venus), separated by Prefix-Suffix linker, allow standardization of terminator's presence effect. The vector is a modified pET21b; it contains Ampicillin resistance gene and is inducible by IPTG (T7promoter-lacO).

The combined use of Part:BBa_K731710 and BBa_K731700 allow also to analyse any potential difference in terminators' activity due to different polymerases.
