[Ni-Fe] Hydrogenase Core gene HoxG1 and HoxK1

This composite part is used for heterologous expression of oxygen-tolerant Hydrogenovibrio marinus [NiFe]-hydrogenase in Escherichia coli.[1]
Hydrogenase is extremely sensitive to oxygen. By expressing oxygen-tolerant hydrogenase in E.coli, the oxygen tolerance will increase thus increases the amount of hydrogen produced by hydrogenase in E.coli. The strain of E.coli we used in the experiments is E.coli BL21. The part basically consists of two main gene: HoxG1 and HoxG1, which encode the large subunit and small subunit of oxygen-tolerant Hydrogenovibrio marinus [NiFe]-hydrogenase respectively. Other key features also include a natural (wild) type of RBS, B0032m, and a pTac promoter which is controlled by LacI(induced by IPTG) and lac operator .
