BASIC PART

K2921575 Metallothionein + EAAAK-linker + mRFP + Double Terminator

This gene codes for colored metal-binding fusion protein: metallothionein (Basic part: BBa_K1460002) linked with mRFP (Basic part: BBa_E1010). According to iGEM14_Cornell’s basic part page of BBa_K1460002, metallothionein is a metal-binding protein that can tightly chelate heavy metal ions by forming a strong coordination bond. The mRFP serves as a functional color reporter, allowing for the convenient visible or UV detection of the location of metallothionein.
