Design Notes

This BioBrick was built by PCR using the following PCR primers

Forward primer: TTCCATGGCGCCAGAGGAATCTAGATGGCATATCCCAACGATC

Reverse primer: CTTCTGACTGGGAAGATTATACCGGTTAATACTAGTAGCGGCCGCTGCAGGACGTC

To insert mdnA in the vector pSB1C3, the resulting PCR product and the vector were digested with the restriction enzymes EcoRI and SpeI.

Because this BioBrick is a RFC10 expression part, the adenin of mdnB gene start codon is part of the XbaI recognition site.


Source

The BioBrick mdnA as a part of the microviridin gene (mdn) cluster was isolated from Microcystis aeruginosa strain NIES-843.
