Biobricks
From 2006.igem.org
Construction So Far
Devices Created
Parts | Part No. | Function | Status |
E. coli ArsR to LacZ | J33203 | pH lowering output in response to raised arsenate concentration | Not Working |
B. subtilis ArsR to LacZ | J33206 | As Above | Doing again with correct lacZ |
B. subtilis ArsR to lambda cI repressor | n/a | To repress the hybrid promoter in response to lower levels of arsenate | Done but untested |
GFP to Terminator | n/a | Testing ArsR function if can't get pH response | Done but not ligated to either ArsR |
Biobricks Constructed By Us
Biobrick | Part No. | Construction | Ligations | Testing | Sequencing | Use |
E. coli ArsR | J33201 | Complete | To LacZ | Working | Done | Detection of Arsenic |
B. subtilis ArsR | n/a | Complete | To LacZ | Tests Underway | SpeI site not correct, not in biobrick form | Detection of Arsenic |
LacZ' | J33202 | Complete | To ArsR and Terminator | Working | Done | Lowering pH/Reporting |
Bacillus Urease | n/a | Site specific mutagenesis required | To ligate to hybrid promoter | N/A | Not Yet | Raising pH |
lambda cI/lacI Promoter | J33205 | Complete | To ligate to urease | Planned | Done | Repressed by lambda cI and lacI in absence of lactose |
Parts constructed but not used
Biobrick | Part No. | Function | |
