Part:BBa_K5117009

AtBglA

This part contains the bglA gene of Acetivibrio thermocellus (synonym Clostridium thermocellum), encoding a β-glucosidase (EC 3.2.1.21).

AtBglA only served for design purposes of the TU Dresden iGEM 2024 Team and was required for the construction of composite parts (see Contribution page).

Target organism: Bacillus subtilis

Main purpose of use: Gene expression and protein production using the host Bacillus subtilis

Design

For compatibility with the BioBrick RFC[10] standard, the restriction sites EcoRI, XbaI, SpeI, PstI and NotI were removed from the coding sequence. To make the part compatible with the Type IIS standard, BsaI and SapI sites were removed as well. This was achieved by codon exchange using the codon usage table of Bacillus subtilis (Codon Usage Database Kazusa).
