Part Improvement
The BioBrick chosen to be improved was the YFP coding sequence: BBa_K592101. To do this, we first standardized the part to be compatible with the GoldenBraid 3.0 assembly method creating the part BBa_K2656021. Then, we created the part BBa_K2656020. This part is the CDS of the YFP with the addition of the degradation tag ssRA LVA.
To test the effect of the degradation tag, we designed an experiment with which we measured the increase in protein degradation due to this tag. To perform this experiment, we assembled two composite parts with the same promoter, RBS and terminator:
BBa_K2656004: the J23106 promoter in its GoldenBraid compatible version from our Part Collection
BBa_K2656009: the B0030 ribosome biding site in its GoldenBraid compatible version from our Part Collection
BBa_K2656021: The original part BBa_K592101 compatible with the GoldenBraid assembly method
BBa_K2656026: the B0015 transcriptional terminator in its GoldenBraid compatible version from our Part Collection
BBa_K2656020: The original part with the added LVA ssRA degradation tag compatible with the GoldenBraid assembly method
