The chassis organisms we use for this project

Species Strain no/name Risk Group Disease risk to humans? If so, which disease
1 E. coli (K 12) DH5 alpha [http://www.absa.org/riskgroups/bacteriasearch.php?genus=&species=coli 1] Yes. May cause irritation to skin, eyes, and respiratory tract, may affect kidneys. However, E. coli K-12 is not considered a human or animal pathogen nor is it toxicogenic. Any concerns for E. coli K-12 in terms of health considerations are mitigated by its poor ability to colonize the colon and establish infections.
2 E. coli (K 12) MG1655 [http://www.absa.org/riskgroups/bacteriasearch.php?genus=&species=coli 1] Same as above

List and description of all new or modified coding regions we used

Part number Where did us get the physical DNA for this part What species does this part originally come from? What is the Risk Group of the species? What is the function of this part, in its parent species?
1 BBa_K1104100 Bioresource Collection and Research Center Escherichia coli K-12 substr. MG1655 1 An enzyme involved in the cleavage of mannose
2 BBa_K1104200 Bioresource Collection and Research Center Escherichia coli K-12 substr. MG1655 1 DNA-binding transcriptional dual regulator
3 BBa_K1104300 National Ilan University Apis mellifera 1 antimicrobial peptide
4 BBa_K1104301 National Ilan University Apis mellifera 1 antimicrobial peptide
5 BBa_K1104400 National Taipei University of Technology Zymomonas mobilis 1 alcohol dehydrogenase
6 BBa_K1104401 National Taipei University of Technology Zymomonas mobilis 1 pyruvate decarboxylase
