Design Notes
Sequence sent to William and Mary iGEM from Virginia iGEM. Visit their wiki [http://2018.igem.org/Team:Virginia/Parts here]. Used PCR to add William and Mary Pad overhangs, which were used to clone the part into William and Mary Pad backbone. Forbidden restriction sites were checked for and removed if necessary.

"In enteric bacteria, the kinase LsrK catalyzes the phosphorylation of the C5-hydroxyl group in the linear form of 4,5-dihydroxy-2,3-pentanedione (DPD), the precursor of the type II bacterial quorum sensing molecule (AI-2). This phosphorylation is required for AI-2 sequestration in the cytoplasm and subsequent derepression of AI-2-related genes necessary for quorum development." 1
