Basic Parts

A basic part is a functional unit of DNA that cannot be subdivided into smaller component parts. BBa_R0051 is an example of a basic part, a promoter regulated by lambda cl.

Most genetically-encoded functions have not yet been converted to BioBrick parts. Thus, there are many opportunities to find new, cool, and important genetically encoded functions, and refine and convert the DNA encoding these functions into BioBrick standard biological parts.

Note

This page should list all the basic parts your team has made during your project and include direct links to your Parts main pages on the Registry. You must add all characterization information for your parts on Parts Main Page on the Registry. You should not put characterization information on this page. Remember judges will only look at the first part in the list for the Best Basic Part award, so put your best part first!

Best Basic Part Special Prize

To be eligible for this award, this part must be well documented on the part's Main Page on the Registry. If you have a part you wish to nominate your team for this special prize, make sure you add your part number to your judging form and delete the alert box at the top of this page.

Please note: Judges will only look at the first part number you list, so please only enter ONE (1) part number in the judging form for this prize.

BioBrick Type Name Description Length
BBa_K3189000 Coding VioC The gene VioC produces Violacein synthase required for the metabolism of tryptophan into a pink or violet (if VioD is present) pigment. 1290
BBa_K3189001 Regulatory Phage Lambda-TetO A phage lambda promoter sequence that has a binding site that allows tetR to bind and repress transcription. 74
BBa_K3189010 Coding VioA The gene VioA produces flavin-dependent L-tryptophan oxidase. VioA along with VioB and VioE are all required for the metabolism of tryptophan into protodeoxy-violaceinic acid, the precursor to the violacein pigment. 1290
BBa_K3189011 Coding VioB The gene VioB produces 2-imino-3-(indol-3-yl)-propanoate dimerase. VioB along with VioA and VioE are all required for the metabolism of tryptophan into protodeoxy-violaceinic acid, the precursor to the violacein pigment. 3030
BBa_K3189012 Coding VioE The gene VioE produces a tryptophan oxidase. VioE along with VioA and VioB are all required for the metabolism of tryptophan into protodeoxy-violaceinic acid, the precursor to the violacein pigment. 606
BBa_K3189008 Regulatory LacI + Promoter The repressor sequence and its promoter that control the transcription of genes that govern the Lac system. 1161
BBa_K3189009 Regulatory Lac Operator The regulatory sequence that can be bound to Lac I to inhibit expression of a given gene. 40
BBa_K3189002 Tag S-Tag An oligopeptide tag that can allow for the detection of the gene directly upstream of this sequence. 90
BBa_K3189003 Terminator T7 Terminator Wild type terminator from T7 bacteriophage. 48
BBa_K3189004 Regulatory TetR Tetracycline repressor that can bind to a TetO sequence to inhibit transcription of a desired gene. 624
