BioBrick Toolbox

To construct the aimed fusion proteins, we first cloned our BioBricks into the storage vector pSEVA132 <partinfo>BBa_K422002</partinfo> (Victor de Lorenzo's lab, KanR, pBBR1 ori). All parts are sequence verified and compatible with BBF RFC28 (http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/46721). A-parts N-Terminal fusion and C-parts C-terminal fusion. B-part is the linker that connects the two entities.
