the insert is the I0050 functional RFP cassette from the 2016 Distribution Kit.
This part is used to test the induction of the pBad promoter. Its insert is the I0050 functional RFP cassette from the 2016 Distribution Kit, K577882, but flanked by UNS2 and UNS3.

UNS 2 Sequence, from Torella et al., 2013
Torella, J. P., Boehm, C. R., Lienert, F., Chen, J. H., Way, J. C., & Silver, P. A. (2013). Rapid construction of insulated genetic circuits via synthetic sequence-guided isothermal assembly. Nucleic acids research, gkt860.
This is Unique Nucleotide Sequence 2, (UNS 2), from Torella et al., 2013. The William and Mary iGEM team has adopted this as our standard prefix; as such, all of our parts will have this sequence immediately following the BioBrick prefix. We took this measure in order to allow easier Gibson Assembly cloning of our parts. Primer sequences which can be used to clone with the UNS 2/3 standard can be found on our wiki.
UNS 2 was chosen because it works well with UNS 3 and it is in accordance with the BioBrick standard.
UNS 3 Sequence, from Torella et al., 2013
This is Unique Nucleotide Sequence 3, (UNS 3), from Torella et al., 2013. The William and Mary iGEM team has adopted this as our standard prefix; as such, all of our parts will have this sequence immediately following the BioBrick prefix. We took this measure in order to allow easier Gibson Assembly cloning of our parts. Primer sequences which can be used to clone with the UNS 2/3 standard can be found on our wiki. The sequence for this part came from the following paper: Torella, J. P., Boehm, C. R., Lienert, F., Chen, J. H., Way, J. C., & Silver, P. A. (2013). Rapid construction of insulated genetic circuits via synthetic sequence-guided isothermal assembly. Nucleic acids research, gkt860. A huge thanks to all the researchers involved in its original creation!
This UNS sequence was chosen to serve as the 3' primer in our standard because it works well with UNS 2 and it adheres to the BioBrick standards.
The part is obtained from ligating several biobricks.
This reporter part is a combination of a constitutive promoter, AraC gene, a pBad promoter (inducible with arabinose), and a RFP gene. The purpose of this part is to provide the user with a simple, but complete, inducible RFP genetic device. Adding arabinose with any concentration higher than 0.01 mM seems to cause a significant expression of the RFP gene. This is useful if the user plans to build a larger plasmid construct in a short time or characterize a specific part. This part can be inserted in a cell line that does not contain any AraC in its genome, which is important if the user is not using Top 10 cells.
The RBS, RFP, and Terminator were taken from BBa_J61002 using SpeI and PstI restriction enzymes.
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.

**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
PC and AraC from the AraBAD operator. PC and AraC are on the complementary strand, reading right to left.
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.
