BBF RFC;94
Abstract
This RFC94 describes an assembly standard based on the Type IIS restriction enzymes BsaI and BbsI (also called BpiI). This assembly standard is based upon the Modular Cloning (MoClo) assembly strategy, which was introduced in 2011 by Weber et al. [1] and is based upon Golden Gate cloning [2]. In this RFC, we describe our proposed MoClo standard for generating a library of bacterial DNA parts for generating four-part transcriptional units (promoter : 5’UTR : CDS : 3’UTR). In this work, we define 5’UTRs as including ribosomal binding sites (RBS) and bi-cistronic design elements (BCDs) [3], and 3’UTRs as transcriptional terminators. The 2012-2014 BostonU iGEM teams completed this work and a more compact library has also been created based on this work [4].
