<p>We improved two parts.

The gene order was changed to improve PHB yield (Hiroe <i>et al.</i>, 2012), codons were optimized for expression in <i>E. coli</i>, and restriction sites were removed to allow part compatibility in all iGEM RFC assembly standards.

BBa_K2260001

We submitted a new gene to the registry to assist in the production of PHB: the phaJ gene that codes for PHB enoyl-CoA hydratase. This part contains both the phaJ and phaC genes and was shown to produce PHB on its own in E. coli under the control of an IPTG-inducible promoter. HPLC was used to identify and quantify the PHB produced. Results can be found on our part's Registry page.

Collaboration

Human Practices Silver

We carefully weighed the effects our project could have in a variety of applications, and considered possible benefits, challenges, and safety concerns. See our Human Practices Silver page for more info!
