UMaryland iGEM submitted various basic and composite parts to the BioBrick Registry, which aims to increase standardization in synthetic biology by allowing genes to be added together easily. We synthesized the genes, put them inside standard BioBrick plasmids, and then characterized our parts.
See:
Basic Parts Composite Parts
Contains genes MDH, HPS, and PHI. Methanol Dehydrogenase II converts methanol into formate. HPS and PHI turn it into metabolites that feed into the glycolysis pathway.
Contains promoter, rbs, and terminator along with GroESL coding region
Fructose construct with RFP reporter
Formate construct with RFP reporter
Contains stop codons after parts FDH and FALDH! Converts methanol into carbon dioxide, generating energy in the form of NADPH in the process.
Codon optimized MDH2 with lac + pL promoter
Chaperone complex
