Design Notes

When designing this part, efforts were made to extract only the promoter sequence while omitting the surrounding base-pairs as presented by van Beilen, et al., 2001. This may have proven to be a fatal flaw, as it is thought that the original surrounding sequences contribute to the functionality of the part as a whole.

We compared this part to plasmid pSPZ3 employed by Sven Panke successfully and found that their PalkB had about 100 additional bp upstream of our part. Further analysis with m-fold suggests that these additional nucleotides play a large role in PalkB function.
