Design Notes

This biobrick part represents a composite of a theophylline riboswitch (type2/clone 12.1) upstream of a Venus fluorescent protein reporter (derived from part BBa_K354002).

Previous teams: Lethbridge 2007, Lethbridge 2009, and NYMU Taipei 2010 all considered strategies for making the riboswitch a separate biobrick, however standard assembly techniques are inadequate since the sequence distance between the ATG, RBS and aptamer domain of the riboswitch are critical. We have explored this further in a more elaborate discussion here.

Source

The Venus fluorescent protein is derived from BBa_K354002.
