Description
At elevated temperatures, the U1 thermosensor releases its hairpin structure and allows the RBS to be readily accessible to the ribosome, enabling increased expression of our desired gene. U1 has a unique trait that allows for the detection of increasing gene expression levels ranging from 22˚C to 37˚C. It contains a pP-T5 promoter, U1 RBS, mTurquoise2, and a pT-T7 terminator.
Notes
No BsaI restriction sites. Under 2kb for synthesis using DNA 2.0.
