Description

[[Image:Table_K777001-K777008_new.png|thumb|240px|right|Fig. 1: Overview of BioBricks containing the Tar gene downstream of Anderson promoters. (Activity according to Berkeley 2006)]]
The transmembrane chemoreceptor Tar of E. coli mediates chemotaxis towards aspartate and exists as a functional homodimer.

Here we used a set of 8 constitutive Anderson promoters from the 2006 Berkeley group to test how different levels of constitutive Tar expression affect the chemotaxis of E. coli.

















Notes

  • Genomic sequence was amplified using the following primers.
    • Primers PCR: Base pairs in caps represent the respective restriction sites followed by either prefix or suffix. Primers were provided by SIGMA.

  • One XbaI site was found at position 420. The restriction site was changed from TCTAGt to CCTAGt via QuikChange PCR.
    • Primers QuikChange (QC): Primers were provided by SIGMA.

*The part was amplified from genomic DNA of E. coli str. K-12 substr. DH10B, complete genome (CP000948.1).
*J23100 information was taken from the partsregistry and physical DNA from the 2012 distribution kit.
