T7-JJU


Description

PT7-jju is a composite part consisting of the T7 promoter and the cs sequences. This part was used in in vivo testing of taurine production. The sequence for jju and T7 promoter were ligated and transformed into E. coli to calculate taurine production using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).

Biology

T7 promoter constitutively facilitates the expression of JJU enzyme.

Usage

JJU enzyme was used in in vitro testing of taurine production. The sequence for JJU enzyme and trc promoter (BBa_K864400) were ligated and transformed into E. coli. By adding L-cysteine substrate into a reaction solution, JJU can help catalyze the conversion of L-cysteine to taurine. Taurine concentrations were determined using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC).
