Double terminator consisting of BBa_B0012 and BBa_B0011
Built by Josh as an intermediate in screening plasmid construction.
T7 promoter (strong promoter from T7 bacteriophage)
T7 promoter is very specific promoter which is transcribed only by specific T7 RNA polymerase. Usually this promoter is used in expression systems where T7 promoter is cotransfected with T7 RNA polymerase. That ensures strong transcription of desired genes.
hixC binding site for Salmonella typhimurium Hin recombinase
Nanassy and Hughes. 1998. In Vivo Identification of Intermediate Stages of the DNA Inversion Reaction Catlyzed by the Salmonella Hin Recombinase [http://www.genetics.org/cgi/content/abstract/149/4/1649]
A 26 bp sequence of DNA composed of 12 bp inverted repeats and a 2 bp core that operates in Salmonella paired with a hixR binding site to recombine DNA. A second hix site is required for recombination to occur. The two sites bind Hin recombinase in the formation of an invertasome.
Standard BioBrick prefix and suffix were added to the 26 bp sequence.

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.

Bidirectional transcriptional terminator consisting of a 22 bp stem-loop.
In the naturally-occuring sequence there is a mismatch in the stem of the stem loop. This can be corrected via an A->G mutation (at position 40 -- sequence coordinate/not MFOLD coordinate). The above sequence does not reflect this mutation (but the MFOLD image does). This terminator's location cannot be found using some inverted repeat detectors like PALINDROME because it is too short and contains a mismatch. This one was found with the help of Tom Knight. It lies between two coding regions that point towards eachother.
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.
