This is a bicistronic gene containing a [https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K4023001 glpF], a [https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K4023002 ribosome binding site] and a [https://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K4023000 modified MTIA]. This gene is designed to coexpress the glycerol uptake facilitator protein (coded by glpF) with the modified metallothionein IA protein. The glycerol uptake facilitator protein transports arsenite into E.coli. This would help to overcome the limiting effect on remediation of arsenite concentration in the bacteria. This bicistronic gene has been optimized to express the glycerol uptake facilitator protein and modified metallothionein IA protein for increased remediation of As III from the environment.

glpF-rbs-modified MTIA

This is a bicistronic gene containing a glpF, a ribosome binding site and a modified MTIA. This gene is designed to coexpress the glycerol uptake facilitator protein (coded by glpF) with the modified metallothionein IA protein. The glycerol uptake facilitator protein transports arsenite into E.coli. This could help to remove the bottleneck IN As III uptake, potentially improving the efficiency of arsenite remediation1. Thus This bicistronic gene has been optimized to express the glycerol uptake facilitator protein and modified metallothionein IA protein for increased remediation of As III from the environment.
