Description

This part consists of the Dendra2 coding sequence codon optimised for Escherichia coli. It is part of the composite BioBrick BBa_K515107. This sequence codes for the photoconvertible protein Dendra2, capable of being irreversibly photoconverted from excitation at 486nm and emission at 505nm wavelength to 558nm excitation and 575nm emission wavelength. Photoconversion can occur using two wavelengths, 488 and 405nm^[1].

==Functional Parameters: Austin_UTexas== BBa_K515007 parameters

Burden Imposed by this Part:

Burden Value: 0.2 ± 5.3%

Burden is the percent reduction in the growth rate of E. coli cells transformed with a plasmid containing this BioBrick (± values are 95% confidence limits). This BioBrick did not exhibit a burden that was significantly greater than zero (i.e., it appears to have little to no impact on growth). Therefore, users can depend on this part to remain stable for many bacterial cell divisions and in large culture volumes. Refer to any one of the BBa_K3174002 - BBa_K3174007 pages for more information on the methods, an explanation of the sources of burden, and other conclusions from a large-scale measurement project conducted by the 2019 Austin_UTexas team.

This functional parameter was added by the 2020 Austin_UTexas team.
