Design Notes

The Cry protein, Cry7Ca1 (GenBank accession no. EF486523) from the Bt strain BTH-13 is a three-domain Cry protein with a molecular weight of 129,196.50 kDa, whereas the activated toxin has a molecular weight of 68 kDa. This part contains the activated toxin. The gene was codon-optimized for expression in Escherichia coli using the GenSmartTM Codon Optimization Tool. The forbidden restriction enzymes sites are the following: BioBrick forbidden restriction sites (EcoRI, XbaI, SpeI, PstI) and Type IIS forbidden restriction sites (BsaI, SapI and Bpil).

The expression cassette of this part was synthesized in the backbone vector pTWIST_Amp_HighCopy from Twist bioscience, containing the viral promoter and terminator from the T7 bacteriophage. This synthetically synthetised plasmid is referred as pTWIST_Cry7Ca1.

This part was designed as if it was cloned using Modular Cloning Toolkit [1][2], so it contians the scars left after assembly.
