Design Notes

The purpose of this part is to biosynthesize isoamyl acetate in E.coli.

We used the ATF1 generator BBa_J45199 and inserted a constitutive promoter BBa_J23108 Benzoic acid/salicylic acid carboxyl methyltransferase 1 converts farnesyl-diphosphate to methyl salicylate or methyl benzoate, which are components of mint and flower scents respectively. The gBlock and linearized pSB1C3 vector were amplified by PCR, digested and ligated. The finished plasmid is in standard BioBrick format.

Constitutive promoter BBa_J23108 has a relative activity of 0.51.
