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 Plac insert was PCR'd from the MG1655 strain of E.coli K12.
Inverting regulatory region controlled by LacI (<bb_part>BBa_C0010</bb_part>, <bb_part>BBa_C0011</bb_part>, etc.) The pLac regulatory region is a 243 base-pair sequence with standard BioBrick prefix and suffix sections on its ends. It contains two protein binding sites: CAP, which is generally present in E.coli and is assocciated with cell health and availability of glucose., and LacI, the Lac inhibitor <bb_part>BBa_C0010</bb_part> which binds in an dimerized cooperative manner to inhibit the transcription of the protein that follows. In the presence of lactose or IPTG, an analog of lactose, LacI is unable to correctly bind and inhibit transcription. This allows <bb_part>BBa_R0010</bb_part> to be used as a inverter or as a detector of lactose or IPTG.
LacI binds to this regulator. This part is incompatible with species containing active LacI coding regions. Lactose and IPTG disable the operation of LacI and this regulator. This part is incompatible with environments containing lactose or lactose analogs.
**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.
The T7 promoter should only produce PoPS when the T7 polymerase is also being expressed.
A serine tRNA was modified to have the anticodon loop 5' UUGGUGGAA 3'so that the anticodon GGUGG could be used to decode a frameshift mutation of CCACC in a mRNA.
