pPhoA-insulator-GFP

In the absence of a lab, The University of Florida 2020 iGEM team offers a contribution to further understand and improve part BBa_K1139201. To increase the expression of Part BBa_K1139201 designed by iGem Tokyo 2013 Team, the RiboJ insulator sequence can be added between the pPhoA promoter and the downstream sequences. Insulators protect against unexpected interactions between neighboring sequences in a genetic circuit (Clifton 2). A common insulator, RiboJ, is made up of the sTRSV-ribozyme, along with a subsequent 23-nucleotide hairpin sequence (Luo 3). The hairpin structure helps expose the ribosome binding site, so that translation can be increased for the downstream sequence transcripts (Luo 3). Therefore, insulators, and specifically, the RiboJ sequence, can be used to increase the efficacy of gene and protein expression in future experimental genetic constructs. More information on literature supporting this improvement can be found on our wiki: our contribution for UFlorida 2020 wiki.
