Description
This is a strong synthetic E. coli ribosome binding site. It is synthesised as two complementary oligonucleotides rather than being incorporated into a biobrick plasmid. It incorporates a SacI site overlapping the XbaI site, which is preserved when it is added to any other biobrick. This allows easy detection of the RBS after it has been added upstream of a biobrick coding sequence in a plasmid vector.
Notes
Note the presence of a SacI site overlapping the XbaI site, which is preserved when this biobrick is added to any other biobrick. At the time of writing, this biobrick is added as a short piece of DNA composed of two complementary oligonucleotides rather than being incorporated into a biobrick cloning vector by itself. It can be added upstream of a biobrick coding sequence, and its presence can easily be detected in miniprep DNA on a gel by using a SacI-SpeI or similar digest.
