Part:BBa_K2586019:Design
Designed by: Robert Warneke, Janek Meiner Group: iGEM18_Goettingen (2018-09-11)
GAT: Glyphosate N-Acetyltransferase
Assembly Compatibility:
- 10COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[10]
- 12COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[12]
- 21COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[21]
- 23COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[23]
- 25COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[25]

Design Notes
This part was ordered from Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT). We inserted the ordered GAT-sequence as template into the PstI and EcoRI digested pSB1C3 backbone.
Source
This part was first described in: Castle et. al. paper (2004). We took this paper as base for the experimental process under the hypothesis that GAT could potentially be inserted into Bacillus subtilis to enable the bacteria to inactivate glyphosate.
