Plasmid_Backbone

Part:BBa_K249004

Designed by: Roxanne Shank   Group: iGEM09_Lethbridge   (2009-08-26)

N-terminal Arginine fusion vector

pSB1A3 with an N-terminal Arginine tag. This particular plasmid utilizes the BioFusion (aka Silver Lab) Standard for BioBrick assembly. Adds 10 Arginine residues to the N-terminus of a Protein (includes Start Codon AUG).

This part was designed as a plasmid vector backbone and was expected to work by adding an N-terminal Arginine Tag to the protein to which it would be fused.

N-terminal tagged YFP did not have substantially more fluorescence than control cells. Cells expressing C-terminal tagged YFP had ten times more fluorescence than control cells and cells expressing N-terminal tagged YFP.
