Description
This part contains BBa_K1427001 under the transcriptional control of a constitutive T7 promoter. Additionally, terminators developed by the Voigt Lab flank the merRNA sequence. There is an upstream ECK120033737 terminator which stops read-through by other genes. Downstream of the merRNA sequence, bidirectional termination is ensured with ECK120029600 and ECK120033736. It is likely these are redundant, as the poly-U tail of the merRNA suggests that is contains an intrinsic terminator.
Notes
The T7 promoter initiates transcription 2 nucleotides (GG) upstream of the actual merRNA sequence. Predictive RNA folding programs did not report any change in secondary structure with this small 5' addition.
