LacI-CFP-PK401-YFP

Reporter construct for measuring the frameshifting efficiency of the PK401 pseudoknot. Produces a reporter of framshift-induction. If translation continues in the 0 frame, a stop codon will be reached to give CFP as the final product. If frameshifting occurs due to the PK401 pseudoknot, translation will continue in the -1 frame to produce a CFP-YFP fusion protein with which FRET can be measured.

This construct was designed to verify the applicability of frameshift inducing elements in the programming of protein expression ratios.
