Description
This part comes from a Bacteriophage Holin Gene pS105
This is a variation of the S gene of the "Cell Lysis Cassette." When it is paired with an activator, the cassette is expressed and cell lysis is induced.
The S105 gene has the initial 6 base pairs at the beginning of the wild type S gene sequence removed. This causes cell lysis to be induced at a faster rate than the wild type.
The added Terminator is artificial and large.
Notes
No design considerations during Holin Gene
Bidirectional, with the reverse estimated to be more effective than the forward. Has a polyA tail of 9 residues.
