Description
The genes responsible for producing mono-rhamnolipids (biosurfactant) are called RhlA and RhlB.. The mono- rhamnolipids consist of a hydrophilic rhamnose head and a 3-(hydroxyalkanoyloxy) alkanoic acid (HAA) fatty acid tail. The RhlA gene (BBa_K1688002) codes for the fatty acid tail and the RhlB connects the tail to a rhamnose molecule. The RhlB gene has been lifted and improved by iGEM10 tokyo-NoKoGen and iGEM14 Nankai from pseudomona aeruginosa. The biobrick BBa_K1688003 is an assembly of RBS with BBa_K1331004

The RhlA gene (BBa_K1331004) and RBS ((BBa_B0034) was lifted from 2015 DNA Distribution Kit.
