Overview

We created 6 basic parts, with coding sequences for different mutations of PETase. They are 884 bp long.

1. BBa_K2982000

Wild Type PETase

The coding sequence for wild type PETase, codon optimised for the gene expression in E. coli. It serves as a standard for comparison of performance of PETase mutants.

2. BBa_K2982001

W159H/S238F PETase mutant

The coding sequence for the W159H/S238F PETase double mutant with claimed enhanced activity created by experts in 2018.[1]

3. BBa_K2982002

S245I/R280L PETase mutant

The coding sequence for the S245I/R280L PETase double mutant, one of the mutants designed by us.

4. BBa_K2982003

W159H/S214H PETase mutant

The coding sequence for the W159H/S214H PETase double mutant, one of the mutants designed by us.

5. BBa_K2982004

W159H/S245I PETase mutant

The coding sequence for the W159H/S245I PETase double mutant, one of the mutants designed by us.

6. BBa_K2982005

S245I PETase mutant

The coding sequence for the S245I PETase single mutant, The mutant is designed by us.

7. BBa_K2982006

Forward primer with RBS34 BBa_B0034 by amplifying GFP BBa_E0040 by PCR

A forward primer that can be used to amplify GFP and characterise the RBS activity easily.

8. BBa_K2982007

Forward primer with RBS BBa_J61124 for amplifying GFP BBa_E0040 by PCR

A forward primer that can be used to amplify GFP and characterise the RBS activity easily.

9. BBa_K2982008

Reverse primer for amplifying GFP BBa_E0040 by PCR

A reverse primer that can be used to amplify the GFP
