Design Notes
This biobrick part represents a composite of a atrazine riboswitch upstream of a mRFP1 fluorescent protein reporter (derived from part BBa_E1010).
Previous teams: Lethbridge 2007, Lethbridge 2009, and NYMU Taipei 2010 all considered strategies for making the riboswitch a separate biobrick, however standard assembly techniques are inadequate since the sequence distance between the ATG, RBS and aptamer domain of the riboswitch are critical. This is why we decided to synthesise this construct via PCR. Primers were designed such that the PCR amplification resulted in an atrazine riboswitch closely fused to the mRFP reporter protein.
