RrD_PSB1C3-High constitutive

This part consists of Acyl-ACP Reductase, ribosomal binding site, Aldehyde Decarbonylase under the control of high constitutive promoter for alkane production.

Usage and Biology

When wild type Aldehyde Decarbonylase is co-expressed with Acyl-ACP Reductase, odd chain length alkanes is produced from the cell's fatty acid biosynthetic pathway. Alkane production is enhanced when growing expression strains using the growth conditions developed by the [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Washington 2011 University of Washington iGEM Team].

GC plot showing that alkanes are only produced when both ADC and AAR are expressed.
GC-MS quantification shows greater alkane production under UW iGEM 2011's "optimized conditions" (see wiki for [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Washington/Alkanes/Results details])
