MMP2 under the control of the pBAD/araC arabinose inducible promoter

Design Notes

The construct was obtained by performing a Gibson reaction on the BBa_I746808 part and MMP2-containing plasmid, after an overlap was added by PCR reaction to both of the elements. For the MMP2 CDS, the PCR not only added an overlap complementary to the iGEM part sequence but also a His tag at the beginning of the protein CDS and a 30bp linker at the end of it, so that it would fold properly when expressed followed by the superfolder GFP sequence.
