ADH1_Miraculin

This is a part improvment from BBa_K1033121 - team Uppsala 2013

Miraculin optimized for S. cerevisae with the ADH1 promoter and histidine tag

The miraculin glycoprotein, originally produced from the Synsepalum dulcificum plant, is an effectively non-cariogenic and acceptable for diabetics in flavor and sweetening formulations and has the ability to convert the sour taste to the sweet taste, and provides a sugar substitute because it has a glycemic index of zero. However, miraculin does not change the taste of the foods / drinks consumed. The mechanism of action of the special protein is still not entirely clear but it is known that in the presence of food / beverage products with a pH level between 3-6 factors trigger the reaction that will give the sense of sweetness effective we added the ADH1 strong promoter at the beginning of the sequence and a histidine tag (his * 6) and terminator at the end.
