PCBA4/5 upstream region of Dehalococcoides mccartyi

This part contains the upstream region (160 base pairs) of the PCBA4/5 gene, found originally in d.mycarti (Wang et all. 2014). The sequence contains the promoter region, which we plan to manipulate in the future for further characterization. We originally planned to extract the upstream regions from all four of the PCBA1, 4, 5, but discovered that the upstream region of 4 and 5 were nearly identical in sequence. To pick an adequate number of base pairs upstream from the coding region to form our geneblock, we used the Neural Network Promoter Prediction software with BDGP with all three sequences, locating the base pair position of all predicted promoters, and designing our upstream-region geneblock around the average distance the predicted promoters were from the start codon.
