Description
The
fliC gene codes for flagellin. This protein is the subunit that forms the flagellar filament of
E. coli.
Here we used 3 different constitutive
Anderson promoters from the 2006 Berkeley group to test how different levels of constitutive
fliC expression affect the motility or flagellum size of
E. coli.
Notes
- The fliC gene contained three PstI sites and one SpeI site that had to be removed. These mutations were induced with different primers via overlap-PCR.
Source
- The fliC gene 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.
