Description
An antisense fragment designed using the sense/coding strand of the ispB
http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K1336005 gene as a method for gene knockdown (i.e. as RNAi) of a crucial stage in the production of quinones within E. coli metabolic processes. At the 5' end, there is also a LacI expression cassette
http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K314103 IPTG-inducible promoter to drive ispB expression.
Notes
When designing PCR primers to change the reverse complement sequence of the ispB gene into the BioBrick format, we truncated the fragment to avoid an illegal PstI restriction site (and so no extra primers were required for site-directed mutagenesis to remove illegal sites).
