Description
The LacI protein is a repressor that binds to a specific operator site ([[Part:BBa_R0010| BBa_R0010]] & [[Part:BBa_K105023| BBa_K105023]]). This site specific binding can be inhibited by Lactose or its analog ITPG.
This BioBrick contains only the DNA binding domain of the natural LacI protein.
Notes
To enable the fusion with other domains in frame the vector of this BioBrick has no base pair in between the restriction side and the BioBrick. Furthermore, this coding sequence does not include a start codon.
