Design Notes

• The virA gene is under the control of a medium strong constitutive promoter so there is enough VirA receptor expressed but not too much so the cell suffers from the expression (VirA is a membrane protein)
• double terminator (forward) to keep expression of kanamycin resistance by the constitutive promoter low
  • double terminator BBa_B0017 instead of BBa_B0015 because of problems mentioned with BBa_B0012
• only for testing the screening principle of mutated virA screening

Source

• virA from A. tumefaciens C58 (BBa_K389001)
• virG gene synthesized by Mr. Gene (BBa_K389002)
• vir promoter from A. tumefaciens C58 (BBa_K389003)
• kanR gene made from BioBrick BBa_P1003
• constitutive promoter, RBS and double terminator from parts.igem (BBa_J23110, BBa_B0034, BBa_B0017)
