Modularisation: This part is to be combined with psbD, containing psbD, and psbC, containing psbC, to form psbDCA, one of five operons for the biosynthesis of a minimal Photosystem II.
 
 
Overview: When induced, Escherichia coli will express the D1 subunit of the photosystem II reaction centre.
 
 
Detection Methods: PsbMZH has been detected in E. coli by gel electrophoresis, and confirmed by DNA sequencing.

Design Notes

Genes required for photosystem II were selected using biocyc entry on Chlamydomonas reinhardtii photosystem II complex. Sequences were obtained from NCBI, targeting sequences were identified in nuclear using ChloroP, and removed, with an ATG added. Resulting sequences were codon optimized for e. coli expression using Optimizer, avoiding EcoRI, XbaI, SpeI and XbaI sites.

Ribosome binding sites were added in front of each CDS, and a promoter was added to biobricks which form the first part of their intended operon.
