This BioBrick contains the coding region of melA codon optimized for Aspergillus oryzae by the DTU Biobuilders 2018. The optimization was performed on BBa_K193600 using the software tool, TaiCO, developed by the team in 2016.

This BioBrick contains the coding region of the nat1 gene encoding a nourseothricin acetyltransferase, which confers resistance to nourseothricin (NTC). The sequence was kindly provided by Jakob Rendsvig and is codon-optimized for expression in Aspergillus oryzae.

This BioBrick encompasses the chromoprotein AmilCP for expression in fungi. It has the promoter and terminator from the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV).

This BioBrick contains the chromoprotein AmilCP for expression in fungi. It has the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase promoter, PgpdA, derived from Aspergillus nidulans and the terminator from the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV).

This BioBrick encompasses the gene hph, which confers resistance to Hygromycin B, for expression in fungi. It has the Aspergillus nidulans promoter PtrpC and terminator from the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV). .

This BioBrick functions to increase expression of melanin in fungi. It contains melA, which encodes a tyrosinase involved in the first step of melanins biosynthesis, under control of the strong constitutive fungal promoter PtrpC derived from Aspergillus nidulans. Its terminator is derived from the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV).

This BioBrick encompasses the melA gene for expression in fungi/eukaryotes, thus increasing expression of melanin. It has the promoter and terminator from the Cauliflower Mosaic Virus (CaMV).

This BioBrick contains the hph selection marker and the chromoprotein AmilCP for expression in fungi.
