Description
RFC10 compatible strong RBS derived from the T7 phage gene 10a (major capsid protein)[1]. When assembled to a coding part with the A of the start codon being part of the XbaI site, the RBS will be shifted one bp downstream compared to the native sequence.
The sequence was successfully used by the iGEM team Heidelberg 2014 for the expression of many proteins in E.coli.
1. Olinss, P. & Rangwala, S. H. Derived from Bacteriophage T7 mRNA Acts ELS an Enhancer of Translation of the lac2 Gene in. 16973???16976 (1989).
Notes
The 18 bp including the XbaI that can be found upstream of the presumably important part of the RBS were included into the sequence just to make sure it works. However to fully comply with RFC10 a G was inserted behind the XbaI site.
