Design Notes

The most common DH5alpha and TOP10 used in assembly are not LacI-constitutive (LacIq) strains. Thus, any ORF placed downstream to this promoter will be massively transcribed, slowing bacterial growth. Therefore, it's recommended to employ low copy number plasmids or LacIq strains when adding genes to this promoter.
