Design Notes

dimeric repressor from enterobacteriophage p22 with dissociation constant of 3*10^-8.

sequence was translated with the E.Coli K12 codon usage table, and nucleotides 95-97 was changed from AAT to AAC to avoid the cut site GAATTC (94-99).

the mutation R10->K10 (ctg->aaa) decreases the binding affinity of the mnt protein to its operator by approximately 12,000 fold (Kd: 2.5e-12 to 3e-8)
