Part:BBa_K608151

translational unit of pcyA

We designed this composite in order to gain the enzyme pcyA (phycocyanobilin-ferredoxin oxidoreductase),
this design is necessary if the part is going be integrated into an assembly of various genes.
[[Image:Enz.jpg|thumb|300px]scheme of enzymes] The enzyme plays an important role in the production of the PCB chromophore (phycocyanobilin)
which is essential for the green and red light receptor system.
Our sequencing confirmed that the part is correct in the pSB1C3 vector.
All physical DNA samples used for this composite come from the registry distribution.

Usage and Biology

For PCB chromophore production the enzyme ho1 (heme oxygenase)
in a similar design is necessary infront of this part
because both enzymes are needed to convert heme into PCB chromophore.
