New composite part
We chose Histamine-Tar receptor as our Best new We chose Histamine-Tar receptor as our Best new composite part. The Histamine-Tar receptor was a
novel design developed using a bioinformatic computational tool called
Rosetta
and shown to
function as predicted,
resulting in chemotaxis response to histamine as an attractant. This property is significant and
can be used in various applications including detection for various foodstuff ,as histamine is known
to be found in food gone bad, especially rotten fish.
This part is composed of strong promoter, Tar native RBS,
Tar-Histamine?, -
part K1992002
and a terminator.
To learn more, please check our Histamine-Tar part,
K1992011,
in the registry.
