Description
High promoter/RBS combination with eCDM8 (part J100101) plus promoter/riboswitch/tetA gene construct (J119140), ligated into pSB1A8 (J119043). This part was constructed using iPCR and PCR to amplify the desired sequences and add BsaI sites, and Golden Gate Assembly to ligate the sequences together. eCDM8 demethylates caffeine to produce theophylline, which in turn binds to the riboswitch, allowing the translation of tetA mRNA, producing a protein that gives cells with this plasmid tetracycline resistance. Therefore cell growth can be used as a reporter of theophylline production.
Notes
This construct was built using iPCR primers to amplify the promoter/RBS/eCDM8 construct (J100101) on pSB1A8 and add to BsaI sites to the end of the amplified sequence. This amplification removed the stuffer and the XbaI site from pSB1A8. PCR primers were used to amplify the promoter/riboswitch/tetA construct (J119140) and to add BsaI sites to the end of this sequence. GGA was then used to ligate these two amplified parts together.
