Constitutive folKE expression construct

This is the folate synthesis gene folKE, one of five genes (folB, folKE, folP, folC, folA) involved in the folate synthesis operon. In this construct, folKE has been inserted behind the strong promoter J23100, the strong RBS B0034, and in front of the double terminator B0015. The vector is the inducible copy plasmid pSB2K3, which can be induced to high copy via IPTG.

The purpose of this construct is to test the effects of FolKE (a fusion gene for GTP cyclohydrolase I (FolE) + 2-amino-4-hydroxy-6- hydroxymethyldihydropteridine pyrophosphokinase (FolK)) overexpression on total folate production in Escherichia coli, with the goal of increasing total folate production.
