Sequences BBa_I742144_sequence (Version 1)

Description

This part consists of sam8, encoding tyrosine ammonia lyase (converts tyrosine to p-coumaric acid) from the bacterium Saccharothrix espanaensis DSM 44229, inserted downstream of a lac promoter with attached lacZ' minigene. The purpose of this was to ensure sam8 expression on induction with IPTG and also to provide a visually selectable tag when assembling the entire pathway; by always inserting a lacZ'-containing part into a non-lacZ'-containing part it is easy to select the correct clones on the basis that they form blue colonies.

Notes

No important considerations.

Source

sam8 is derived from Saccharothix espanaensis DSM 44229. The lac promoter and lacZ' minigene, encoding the N-terminal 76 amino acid residues of LacZ, are derived from Escherichia coli BS(DE3).
