Design Notes
RMF was amplified from E. coli genomic DNA, therefore sequence optimization was unnecessary. The RMF gene does not contain any restriction sites for EcoRI, XbaI, SpeI or PstI and was turned into a BioBrick without further modification.
Source
The nucleotide sequence of RMF from Escherichia coli MG1655 was obtained from GenBank and used for primer design. Amplification from DH5-alpha genomic DNA template and addition of BioBrick standard prefix and suffix RMF was performed by PCR using the following primers:
forward primer 5'-cgcggaattcgcggccgcttctagatgaagagacaaaaacgagatcgcctgg
reverse primer 5'-cgcgctgcagcggccgctactagtattattaggccattactaccctgtccgc
The PCR product was subcloned into vector pSB1A7.
