K1613017 is a new part which can detect lead (Pb) ions in the liquid.
The sequence was retrieved from genebank.
This part is desinged to proceed lead detection in e.coli. When lead ions (Pb2+) enter the e.coli, they will combine with the protein PbrR and then form a dimer. The lead promoter can be controlled by the dimer to further trigger the RFP. The idea of this design came from Brown 2007 igem team, also working on lead detection. We combined I721001 and I721002 from their teams with a constitutive promoter J23102 and RFP to make them function.
At first, we used I721001 and I721002 from 2012 kit plate, but then we found out that they were inconsistent because of the failed transformation we did. So we got the sequences of these two parts from genebank and ordered these two parts.
RBS (Elowitz 1999) -- defines RBS efficiency
Varies from -6 to +1 region from original sequence to accomodate BioBricks suffix. No secondary structures are formed in the given RBS region. Users should check for secondary structures induced in the RBS by upstream and downstream elements in the +50 to -50 region, as such structures will greatly affect the strength of the RBS.

RBS.3 (medium) -- derivative of BBa_0030
Weak1 RBS based on Ron Weiss thesis. Strength is considered relative to <bb_part>BBa_B0030</bb_part>, <bb_part>BBa_B0031</bb_part>, <bb_part>BBa_B0033</bb_part>.
Varies from -6 to +1 region from original sequence to accomodate BioBricks suffix ("RBS-2" in figure 4-14 of thesis). Contact info for this part: Brian Chow
**highly** engineered mutant of red fluorescent protein from Discosoma striata (coral)
Campbell et al., PNAS v99 p7877 URL
monomeric RFP: Red Fluorescent Protein. Excitation peak: 584 nm Emission peak: 607 nm
TAATAA double stop codon added (DE). Four silent mutations made to remove three EcoRI sites and one PstI site: A28G, A76G, A349G, G337A.
Double terminator consisting of BBa_B0010 and BBa_B0012
Lead Promoter (Part 4) messed up EcoRI site
Derived from the TE terminator of T7 bacteriophage between Genes 1.3 and 1.4 <genbank>V01146</genbank>.
Transcription terminator for the E.coli RNA polymerase.
Suggested by Sri Kosuri and Drew Endy as a high efficiency terminator. The 5' end cutoff was placed immediately after the TAA stop codon and the 3' end cutoff was placed just prior to the RBS of Gene 1.4 (before AAGGAG). Use anywhere transcription should be stopped when the gene of interest is upstream of this terminator.
Transcriptional terminator consisting of a 64 bp stem-loop.
