This is an improved version of [[Part:BBa_K584027|BBa_K584027]], which expresses an Ice Nucleating Protein, encoded by [[Part:BBa_K1896002|''inaZ'']]. The original part was not genetically stable, probably due to toxicity caused by overexpression of the membrane bound INP. Replacing the promoter with a weaker variant proved to be effective in reducing toxicity, while still maintaining activity as biological ice nucleator.

inaZ (INP) generator

This is an improved version of BBa_K584027, which expresses an Ice Nucleating Protein, encoded by the inaZ gene of Pseudomonas syringae. The original part was not genetically stable, probably due to toxicity caused by overexpression of the membrane bound INP. Replacing the promoter with a weaker variant proved to be effective in reducing toxicity, while still maintaining activity as biological ice nucleator. This activity is the result of a central repeat domain that catalyses the formation of ice crystals by binding molecules of water in a way that resembles the lattice structure of ice. [1]
