Design Notes

This composite part can successfully be used in K12 E.coli on a vector with ampicillin resistance and a rhamnose-inducible and glucose-repressible sensor. This sensor contained rhaR, rhaS, and promoter PRHA (see reference 2 below for more imformation), and was physically directly before the RBS of the construct. It was found that this construct is difficult to synthesize because of slight leaky expression, but it was successfully synthesized in two tries. One could consider, if coupling this construct with a sensor, to ask the synthesis company to include the repressor of the sensor while cloning (glucose in this case) to minimize failure.
