BBa_K325219

Red luciferase and LRE operon from L. cruciata under pBAD This part generates the luciferase and luciferin regenerating enzyme proteins from the Japanese firefly, Luciola cruciata, when induced by L-arabinose. The luciferase produced has a point mutation Ser286Asn which gives it a redshifted emission spectrum as compared to wild-type. The sequence of nucleotides is codon optimised for expression in E. coli.

BBa_K325219

V. fischeri luxCDABE under pBAD This part generates luxCDABE proteins from the bioluminescent bacterium, Vibrio fischeri, when induced by L-arabinose. The BioBrick produces light from basic metabolites found in E. coli, luxCDE produce the substrate used by luxAB for bioluminescence. The part creates a blue light.
