Design Notes

The F30 downstream RNA aptamer scaffold needs to be placed after the RNA aptamer sequence followed by the 4bp overhang. It should be used in conjunction with the F30 Upstream RNA aptamer scaffold (BBa_K3380101) for proper functioning.

The short length of the F30 downstream RNA aptamer scaffold, allows its synthesis rather than cloning it using plasmids.

Source

The F30 scaffold was engineered by Filonov et al. in 2015. It is based on the Φ29 RNA three-way junction motif studied by Shu et al. in 2014.
