Design Notes
Original paper mentioned 8 codon substitution of the downstream LacZ reporter gene with the first 8 codons of the MgtE gene (which is the native gene which this riboswitch controls). Our construct used LacI as the downstream regulated sequence, which requires its N-terminal domain to bind to DNA. Sequences both with and without this substitution have been submitted. This contains the substitution. Please note that to use this version effectively, an assembly method that does not leave scars (such as Gibson assembly) will be required.
