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.

The metK gene was amplified by PCR with genomic DNA of S. avermitilis(具体型号) as template using primers metK1 and metK2
metK is the S-adenosylmethionine synthetase gene from Streptomyces avermitilis, which was found to stimulate the production of avermectins. When wild-type strain ATCC31267 was transformed with pYJ02 and pYJ03, two metK expression plasmids, avermectin production was increased about 2.0-fold and 5.5-fold compared with that in the control strains, respectively. The avermectin productivity of each culture was quantitatively measured by HPLC analysis. As the kinetic study revealed, avermectin overproduction in recombinant strain was not caused by the change of cell growth rate or copy number effect. Instead, metK stimulates the avermectin production by increasing the intracellular concentration of S-adenosylmethionine (SAM), an important intermediate product in avermectin production. However, there may be a maximum concentration of SAM for the production of avermectin in S. avermitilis, over which it has no any effect on the antibiotic production. The results of experiments showed that there were different effects of metK expression levels on avermectin production in various S. avermitilis strains. The gene expression levels of metK in two engineered strain, GB-165 and 76-05, were much higher then those in wild-type strain, whereas the avermectin productivity in these two strains were not significantly improved. It probably because the high expression level of metK limited the increasement of avermectin by overexpression of metK.
mCherry, bacterial with RBS and forward terminator
Combines BBa_B0015 forward terminator with BBa_J06602 mCherry, bacterial with RBS
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.
mCherry from Roger Y. Tsien's lab, altered to be BioBrick compatible
mRFP (DsRed) derived, altered to be a biobrick by removing a PstI site and adding in the ends.
Made a point mutation to eliminate a PstI site in the middle and then added BioBrick ends using PCR. Sequenced using primers that bind to the pSB1A2 plasmid on either side of the brick.
