Description
Constitutively expressed Enhanced Green Fluorescen Protein (eGFP). eGFP is more intense than normal GFP.
The purpose of this construct is to be able to easily detect cells attached to a surface, therefore detecting biofilm formation cells. For our project that would be used for detecting curli-forming cells.
Notes
eGFP was desired to be constitutively expressed.
The sequence was screened for illegal iGEM restriction sites
Source
eGFP was PCRed out a conventional plasmid containing the coding sequence for this reporter gene.
The constitutive promoter is the iGEM J23110 Anderson promoter
