Design Notes

Parts were assembled using 3A assembly of K206000 (pBAD promoter) and K1033120 (RBS-Miraculin), following the iGEM protocol. Since both parts were in the pSB1C3 backbone, we initially assembled the final construct in the pSB1A3 backbone, then moved the composite part into the pSB1C3 backbone using RE cloning.

Restriction Enzyme cloning: Double digest of pSB1C3 backbone + K1783000 of EcoRI-HF and PstI-HF (1 unit each) for 1 hr. Ligation of an equimolar amount of both inserts + backbone with T4 DNA Ligase overnight. Transformation into DH5-alpha chemically competent cells.

DH5α was used as the cell strain for transformations due to the absence of recombinases.

Source

All parts are from previous BioBricks. pBAD promoter is from E. coli, while Miraculin gene comes from S. dulcificum.
