Part:BBa_K1739000
Sequence coding for amyloid Sup35NM
We have improved a previously designed BioBrick (Part:BBa_K401001) from the [http://2010.igem.org/Team:Valencia Valencia 2010 iGEM team] that encoded the Sup35 protein from Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The previously designed BioBrick contained two illegal cut sites for Pstl and one for Bsal within the coding region that reduce compatibility for digestion and modification of the part. Our improved BioBrick has used genome optimisation in order to remove these cut sites, producing a part compatible with the iGEM part submission standards. Validation of this part used a diagnostic Congo Red plate that demonstrated the presence of amyloid by formation of red colonies.

Validation
To validate the nature of our plasmid, we analysed it through agarose gel electrophoresis. A restriction digest of our plasmid was carried out using ECORI and PSTI. These enzymes cleave pSBIC3 at 2029bp, with our insert being 780bp. By comparing the sizes of our inserts to the Invitrogen 1kB DNA Marker, we found that our fragments were the correct sizes, therefore validating our BioBrick.
