Design Notes

Niland et al. found that certain mutations in the AraI1 operator site increased binding of the DNA to the AraC protein [1]. We applied all of these mutations with the goal of creating a stronger version of the pBAD promoter. See pBAD Promoter Family for more details.

Site-directed mutagenesis was performed on BBa_I13453 using the following primers:
Forward: 5'-PO4-TAATCTTATGGACTATCTTGCTATGGCATAGC-3'
Reverse: 5'-PO4-GCGGATCCTACCTGACGCTTTTTATC-3'

Site-directed mutagenesis: We used the Finnzyme Phusion Site-directed Mutagenesis Kit in accordance with the manufacturer's directions.
Primers: Phosphorylated oligos were purchased from Integrated DNA Technologies (IDT) and resuspended in water.
Template: BBa_I13453 was obtained from the 2009 iGEM Spring Distribution according to Registry instructions and used as the template for site-directed mutagenesis.
