Description
Promoter for transcribing keys to act on locks based on Isaacs, Collins, et. al: "Engineered riboregulators enable post-transcriptional control of gene expression" PK2 absorbs three nucleotides from mixed site ("TACTAGAG"), so that the key has a 5 nucleotide spacer region (i.e. "TAGAG") between the transcription start site and the first nucleotide of the key. We are still looking into what the optimal size for the spacer region is. See also PK3 (BBa_J01006), and Key1 (BBa_J01008), Key2 (BBa_J01009), Lock1 (BBa_J01010), and Lock2 (BBa_J01011).
