Design Notes
This part was created using Gibson Assembly to clone the gene coding for the DNA2.0 chromoprotein into pSB1C3. We also added a FLAG, lumino and 6x histidine tag in order be able to extract the expressed protein using nickel column purification. The lumino tag is a specific six amino acid sequence that binds to the LumioTM Green [1] which allows the fusion of the lumino tag and the chromoprotein to be detected on an SDS-Page Gel without having to run a staining protocol. The FLAG tag allows for anything after its sequence to be cleaved off of the protein when the extracted protein is incubated with enterokinase [2].This was done in case the lumino or histidine tag interfered with the chromoprotein structure.
