Design Notes
A pTet promoter (can be repressed by tet Repressor, and transcription activity can be restored by addition of anhydrotetracycline (aTc)) produces transcripts of a spacer (including the RBS)-cro complex. The spacer is a temporary placeholder, where later cis sequences (for cis riboregulator) will be cloned in.
Source
Ptet was a standardized iGEM part, and the cro gene was from the lambda zap genome. Spacer-primers were specially designed so that the two parts (pTet and cro gene) could, through overlap extension PCR, be joined by the intermediary spacer.
