Design Notes

The hexahistidine tag has the ability to also bind to metals (this is why is is able to bind to a nickle column). To gain accurate results, the his tag would have to be removed to ensure that the cutA protein is binding the copper. The coding sequence is codon optimized for efficient expression in E.coli

Source

The part (in plasmid) was a gift from the Weiden lab at the University of Lethbridge and is originally a plasmid from the ASKA database.
