Usage and Biology
Usage: The mamO gene was used to initiate the formation of magnetite by "nucleating" the crystal particles, allowing further development. MamP forms part of a proposed electron transport complex (with mamT and X) in vivo, which should form magnetite. The part was used to assemble further composite parts BBa_K1985008 and BBaK1985009 in pSB1A3.
BBa_K1321333 is a regulatory part is made up of the Arabinose-Inducible promoter, pBAD, and its transcriptional inhibitor/activator, AraC. It was used to give increased control over the expression of part BBa_K1985007.
Biology: For more information on the biology of mamO and mamP see parts BBa_K1985006 and BBa_K1985000 and for more information on the AraC pBAD promoter please see BBa_K1321333.
Validation
The part was first validated with a diagnostic restriction digest using EcoRI and PstI and agarose gel electrophoresis. The expected band sizes from the digest were: 3140 base pairs for the plasmid backbone and 2129 for the insert. A 1kB plus DNA marker was used to verify the sizes of the bands and it was confirmed that the correct plasmid had been produced.
