Design Notes

All BioBrick parts used for assembling the composite part are compatible with the RFC10 Biobrick standard. Fusion of two parts was conducted following the proposed BioBrick Assembly Strategy (https://parts.igem.org/Assembly:Standard_assembly). Since the gene of interest was designed according to RFC25, the BioBrick assembly created cloning scars up- and downstream of the GOI, mVenus.

Source

Since this composite part consists of several BioBrick parts, several sources exist. As for the suicide gene, mGMK_TK was isolated from the herpes simplex virus (HSV). Addtionally, the elements for efficient viral particles production were obtained from pAAV_MCS.
