Design Notes

1. Source and function

The gene was cloned from Drosophila melanogaster cDNA aquired from Drosophila Genomic Resource Center. The normal function of the gene is to create beta-caroten 15'15-monooxygenase as outlined above. The function of this gene has been characterized in the literature.

2. Modifications before assembly

Appart from addition of BioBrick prefix/suffix no changes were made to the DNA before inserting it into E. coli.

3. Vector

The gene was inserted into a pSB1C3 backbone.

6. Safety considderations

We considered the gene, the strains of E. coli and plasmids used as safe.

Source

The ninaB gene was originally cloned from drosophila melanogaster, and cDNA was aquired for production of the biobrick from the Drosophila Genome Ressource Center. Promotor+rbs brick BBa_J13002 and terminator BBa_B0015 were used.
