New composite part
This is our chemotaxis part collection. This 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 (link to the Rosetta page) and shown to function as predicted (link to proof of concept) 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 (pop up:Tar LBD mutated to bind histamine)- part K1992002 (link to the part page: http://parts.igem.org/wiki/index.php?title=Part:BBa_K1992002) and terminator.
