Part:BBa_K2253002
Optimized Blue Chromoprotein
As previously stated, this is the original blue chromoprotein sequence (BBa_K592009) that has been codon optimized. The part has been made a composite part with the promotor and RBS sequence, BBa_K608002 in the pSB1C3 BioBrick backbone. Codon optimization allows it to function more efficiently in E.coli, therefore creating a lower metabolic burden on the cells that it is encoded in. When this sequence is put into a vector and transformed into a plasmid it shows a blue phenotype. Codon optimization also makes this part more stable, as the color is expected to be maintained for a longer period of time than the original, making it a good candidate to use as a biosensor for things like toxins, such as lead.
