Parts Submitted - Under Construction
Our Team has successfully characterized the following parts and have submitted them to the registry:
Tetrapyrrole-binding protein - In Arabidopsis, GUN4 (Genomes uncoupled 4) is required for the functioning of the plastid mediated repression of nuclear transcription that is involved in controlling the levels of magnesium- protoporphyrin IX. GUN4 binds the product and substrate of Mg-chelatase, an enzyme that produces Mg-Proto, and activates Mg-chelatase. GUN4 is thought to participates in plastid-to-nucleus signaling by regulating magnesium-protoporphyrin IX synthesis or trafficking.
[Description]
In addition to the above parts which were submitted to the registry, we have also developed other parts that have not been submitted. This includes all the genes necessary to develop chlorophyll biosynthesis within E.coli. Details of all our developed parts can be found below.
