Design Notes

The original CDS can be found [http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/AB047106.1 in this link], the file reports a cluster of proteins induced by alkanes. We took the ORF contained from 1213bp to 2706bp.

The Nucleotide sequence was optimized for its expression in E.coli K12. We used the software tool available in [http://www.jcat.de/ jcat] for this purpose. Additionally we deleted the restriction sites for EcoRI, PstI, SpeI and XbaI and we change the stop codon for a TAA in order to avoid the formation of unexpected ORF's.

The expected aminoacid sequence is:

According to the authors [1], the purified protein has an activity of dodecanal dehydrogenase equal to 22.995 U/mg protein (4e-7 kat/mg protein). This part was expressed using the promoter-rbs combination J23100-J61117 and also J13002. Thus generating the parts: BBa_K398029 and BBa_K398030, respectively.
