BioBricks, the making of

For our RBS characterization project, five different RBS sequences from the Anderson RBS family (J61100, J61101, J61107, J61117, J61127) and the standard RBS B0032 were placed in front of the standard GFP coding sequence. The Biobricks generated in order to perform the experiments were: K398500, K398501, K398502, K398503, K398504. The general map of the construction is shown below, where the RBS is displayed in fucsia.

Feature Function
AmpR Ampicillin resistance
B0015 Transcriptional (double) terminator
B0062 Transcriptional terminator
E0040 GFP
G00000 Standard prefix
G00001 Standard suffix
G00100 VF2 primer binding site
G00101 VR primer binding site
J61100 RBS Anderson family
J23100 Promoter

BBa_I13401 was PCR amplified using the universal primers G00100 and G00101. The purified PCR product was assembled into one of the Anderson RBS plasmids provided in the distribution plates by means of 2-way ligations.

Transformation into competent Top10 E.coli cells yielded positives, as determined by fluorescence analysis.
