phTERT promoter


Assembly Compatibility:
  • 10
    COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[10]
  • 12
    COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[12]
  • 21
    COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[21]
  • 23
    COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[23]
  • 25
    COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[25]
  • 1000
    COMPATIBLE WITH RFC[1000]


Design Notes

The phTERT was created by PCR amplifying the phTERT with overhanging RFC10 iGEM restriction sites and ligated it into pSB1C3. The pHTERT does not contain any iGEM restriction sites being compatible with the RFC25 and RFC10 standard.
