Promoters
Different constructs need different levels of expression. We have constructed and characterised a library of constitutive promoters of different strengths. These are based on a consensus sequence from promoters in Lactobacillus but have been shown to also work very well in E. coli.
Reporter genes
Many techniques and methods require fluorescent reporter genes to function. While some fluorescent proteins works poorly in Lactobacillus we have biobricked a codon-optimized version of mCherry that has been shown to work. This has been done according to assembly standard 25 to allow it to be used as a fusion protein.
Toxin-antitoxin
A major challenge in synthetic biology is that there is a selective pressure against metabolically taxing systems. In nature, many natural plasmids contain genes coding for a toxin and the associated antitoxin. These systems can significantly increase the segregational stability of plasmids and is an easy to use alternative to chromosomal integration.
Vectors
Perhaps the most important chassi parts we have constructed are shuttle vectors that work both in Lactobacillus and E. coli. Because Lactobacillus is significantly harder to work with and ligations are hard to transform, constructs should first be assembled and prepped in E. coli and then transferred to Lactobacillus with the shuttle vector.
Signal peptides
Lactobacillus is a great genus for the secretion of proteins and contains several secretory pathways. In order for a protein to be exported it needs to be tagged with a short amino acid sequence at the N-terminus called a signal peptide. We have synthesised a signal peptide that can be assembled with a protein of choice.
