Basic Parts
Basic parts are defined as "functional unit[s] of DNA that cannot be subdivided into smaller component parts."
Basic Parts
BBa_K2226003 - COX-2 gene
This part consists of the gene for cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), an enzyme that is found in elevated levels during inflammation, predominantly found in gastric mucosa and kidneys.
BBa_K2226001 - COX-2 promoter
BBa_K2226004 - c-Myc gene
This part consists of the mutated c-Myc gene, which is a regulator gene that codes for a transcription factor. The expressed protein controls multiple functions including cell cycle progression, apoptosis, and cellular transformation. The mutated version of c-Myc is expressed constitutively in many cancers.
BBa_K2226003 - COX-2 gene
Composite Parts
Composite parts are defined as "functional unit[s] of DNA consisting of two or more basic parts assembled together."
Composite Parts
