RBS (B0034) + MerR (mercury-responsive transcription factor)

Design Notes

The native RBS of MerR is not strong enough and its intensity can not be predicted as there is no such a corresponding RBS part in Registry. In order to facilitate the use and further characterization of MerR for future team, we prefixed an RBS part BBa_B0034 from Partsregistry.
