RBS (Elowitz 1999) -- defines RBS efficiency
Varies from -6 to +1 region from original sequence to accomodate BioBricks suffix. No secondary structures are formed in the given RBS region. Users should check for secondary structures induced in the RBS by upstream and downstream elements in the +50 to -50 region, as such structures will greatly affect the strength of the RBS.

The Plac insert was PCR'd from the MG1655 strain of E.coli K12.
Inverting regulatory region controlled by LacI (<bb_part>BBa_C0010</bb_part>, <bb_part>BBa_C0011</bb_part>, etc.) The pLac regulatory region is a 243 base-pair sequence with standard BioBrick prefix and suffix sections on its ends. It contains two protein binding sites: CAP, which is generally present in E.coli and is assocciated with cell health and availability of glucose., and LacI, the Lac inhibitor <bb_part>BBa_C0010</bb_part> which binds in an dimerized cooperative manner to inhibit the transcription of the protein that follows. In the presence of lactose or IPTG, an analog of lactose, LacI is unable to correctly bind and inhibit transcription. This allows <bb_part>BBa_R0010</bb_part> to be used as a inverter or as a detector of lactose or IPTG.
LacI binds to this regulator. This part is incompatible with species containing active LacI coding regions. Lactose and IPTG disable the operation of LacI and this regulator. This part is incompatible with environments containing lactose or lactose analogs.
Derived from the TE terminator of T7 bacteriophage between Genes 1.3 and 1.4 <genbank>V01146</genbank>.
Transcription terminator for the E.coli RNA polymerase.
Suggested by Sri Kosuri and Drew Endy as a high efficiency terminator. The 5' end cutoff was placed immediately after the TAA stop codon and the 3' end cutoff was placed just prior to the RBS of Gene 1.4 (before AAGGAG). Use anywhere transcription should be stopped when the gene of interest is upstream of this terminator.
Transcriptional terminator consisting of a 64 bp stem-loop.
Promoter (luxR & HSL regulated -- lux pL)
The lux cassette of V. fischeri contains a left and a right promoter. The left promoter gives weak constitutive expression of downstream genes.This expression is down-regulated by the action of the Lux repressor, LuxR. Two molecules of LuxR protein form a complex with two molecules the signalling compound homoserine lactone (HSL). This complex binds to a palindromic site on the promoter, increasing the rate of transcription from Pr, repressing transcription from Pl
This promoter is based on the Vibrio fischeri quorum sensing gene promoters. Two genes LuxI and LuxR and transcribed in opposite directions as shown below. The original sequence from which the parts <bb_part>BBa_R0062</bb_part> and <bb_part>BBa_R0063</bb_part> were derived is shown in the picture below.Includes most of Lux reulatory region, including the LuxR binding site which activates the right promoter. A putative LuxR autorepression binding site is also identified adjacent to the -10 site of the right promoter. This 2nd site has 55% identity with the first site. Putative inverted repeats (of size 18-27 bp) also exist between these two sites (not marked above), which may represent binding sites for other regulatory proteins. <img src="<bb_file>Image01.gif</bb_file>" width="614" height="362"> Unspecified.

c2 repressor from Salmonella phage P22 (+LVA)
The P22 c2 repressor protein coding sequence is a 720 base-pair sequence with the standard RBS-compatible BioBrick prefix and the standard BioBrick suffix sections on its ends. It binds to the P22 c2 regulatory sequence, BBa_R0053. The sequence contains a LVA tag for faster degredation.

The p22 cII regulatory region sequence is a 97 base-pair sequence with the standard BioBrick prefix and suffix sections on its ends. p22 cII repressor protein, BBa_C0053, binds to it. This segment contains O-R1, O-R2, a fragment of O-R3, the -35 of P-RM, and P-R (-10 and -35 from Tom Knight)
modified E. coli thr terminator, replaced all A-T pairs in stem with C-G pairs
Artificial terminator, estimated %T~>90% *8bp stem, 6nt loop *Bidirectional, estimated reverse %T~>90%
Bidirectional, with the reverse estimated to be less effective than the forward. Has a polyA tail of 9 residues.
AraC operator, truncated to include araO1, araI1, araI2, c-amp1, and c-amp2 sites. This operator should *activate* transcription in the presence of AraC; b/c the operator lacks the araO2 site, there should not be araC-mediated repression.
tetracycline resistance protein TetA(C) (forward), [cf. BBa_J31006]
This part is the coding region of the TetR gene. It requires a promoter and RBS for the cell to be able to express tetracyline resistance.

The lux cassette of V. fischeri contains a left and a right promoter. The right promoter gives weak constitutive expression of downstream genes.This expression is up-regulated by the action of the Lux activator, LuxR complexed to HSL. Two molecules of LuxR protein form a complex with two molecules the signalling compound homoserine lactone (HSL). This complex binds to a palindromic site on the promoter, increasing the rate of transcription.
2 silent point mutants were introduced in the coding sequence to remove internal XbaI and PstI sites. Mutation sites were chosen to replace codons commonly used in E. coli with codons used at a similar frequency.
