We ordered this sequence as a synthetic oligonucleotide in two halves: one 5-->3, one 3-->5, with 20bp overlap. We then joined these parts using PCR to make the full sequence. This is essentially a deliberate primer dimer. We inserted this sequence into our previous constructs using [http://www.synbio.org.uk/gibson/downloads/files/RFC57.pdf Gibson assembly], an extremely powerful method of assembling DNA constructs that is compatible with Standard Assembly.

TorA tag variant

This is an improved version of part BBa_K233307 designed to allow comparison with measurements of functionality in the literature, and to make it easier to synthesise.

This TorA leader sequence variant has had been successfully used to export GFP to the periplasm of E.coli as described [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/11123687 here].

Producing BBa_k638402 from primer synthesis

We assembled the basic part by using 2 synthetic oligonucleotides with a 20bp overlap that will anneal to give the whole sequence. Biobrick prefixes and suffixes can then be added to create an in-frame fusion by assembly techniques such as BBF RFC 23 or 25. Alternatively, Cambridge 2011 created scar-free fusions of this export tag to our protein of interest by [http://www.cambridgeigem.org/RFC57.pdf Gibson Assembly].
