Optimized RFPs

While testing our system for lowering mutation rates, we relied heavily on fluorescent reporter genes with their sequences altered according to our optimization algorithm. These parts were made resistant to a variety of mutagen types, and placed in expression cassettes for studying rates of deleterious mutations in vivo. The part numbers and their corresponding genes are listed below:


K1673010 Partially UV-Resistant RFP

K1673011 Constitutively Expressed Partially UV-Resistant RFP

K1673101 UV-Resistant RFP

K1673103 UV Mutation Maximizied RFP

K1673104 Oxidation-Resistant RFP

K1673110 IPTG Promoter Standard RFP

K1673111 IPTG Promoter UV-Resistant RFP

K1673112 IPTG Promoter UV-Resistant RFP, Improved Expression

K1673113 IPTG Promoter UV Mutation Maximized RFP
