Figure 1: An SPL designed on the basis of randomizing both the spacer sequences surrounding the consensus regions (-35 and -10 regions) as well as randomizing two bases within each of the consensus regions is illustrated. N stands for 25% each of A, C, G and T, while S stands for 50% each of C and G, and W stands for 50% A and T.


Figure 2: The linear BioBrick plasmid backbone with SPL inserted between the EcoRI and XbaI sites of the BioBrick prefix is illustrated.


Figure 3: The primer binding sites on a BioBrick plasmid backbone as well as the final linear plasmid backbone that is generated by the PCR is illustrated.


Table 1: illustrates the Tm of the SPL primers. IDT DNA oligo analyzer was used in order to calculate the Tm.
