Design Notes

Based on the 2006 MIT iGEM team's composite part BBa_J45995, with GFP replaced with sfGFP from Ceroni et al. 2015, RBS BBa_B0030 replaced with an RBS containing region from Ceroni et al. 2015, scar sequences removed, and UNS1 and UNS10 added to the ends.

  • We elected to use super-folder green fluorescent protein (sfGFP) as opposed to the original GFP, as it folds more readily in Escherichia coli, thus serving as a more effective assay (Pédelacq 2006).
  • We switched the original RBS with an RBS containing region used with the sfGFP sequence in Ceroni (2015)'s paper. Our team had previously used those parts together successfully, so we elected to use them together again.
  • We added UNS1 and UNS10 sequences to make this part compatible with Gibson Assembly with our backbone, as we also added UNS1 and UNS10 to our pSB1C3 backbone.
