Description
This part is a codon optimized version for yeast of the violacein C (vioC) gene submitted by the Alberta
team in 2013 as K1161003 and is easy to insert in a custom violacein system. VioC is one of five genes in the violacein metabollic pathway that together produce the purple pigmented antibiotic, violacein, when expressed in yeast.
Notes
The online codon-optimization tool offered by Integrated DNA Technologies (https://www.idtdna.com/CodonOpt) was used to codon-optimize this sequence for use in yeast. Combinations containing RFC 10 illegal restriction sites were actively avoided.
Source
VioC is originally from the violacein metabolic pathway in Chromobacterium Violaceum, a type of Proteobacteria. The original vioC sequence for the bacteria chassis was submitted by the Alberta team and has been codon-optimized for use in yeast in this part.
