Parts

We focused on a simple design for a replacement for the LAL test. Factor C self-cleaves and activates a propteolytic function whe it encounteres endotoxin. Although other teams have attempted to clone the Factor C gene and add it to the registry, they did not succeed. Our Factor C open reading frame part is the first instance of this protein being deposited in the registry. The second part of our system is composed of GFP and a cellulose binding domain (CBD) linked together by a short amino acid sequence that contains the target site for the proteolytic activity of activated Factor C. We also had ambitions to do this with RFP, and so some of the parts in our table did not get made.

Part Table

Please include a table of all the parts your team has made during your project on this page. Remember part characterization and measurement data must go on your team part pages on the Registry.
