<br>The binding module has been placed under the control of Pveg (<a href="http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K143012"target="_blank">BBa_K143012</a>), a strong constitutive promoter and we used a consensus RBS (<a href="http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K090505"target="_blank">BBa_K090505</a>) and a double terminator (<a href="http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_B0015"target="_blank">B0015</a>). The construct has been inserted in an integrative plasmid, pSBBS4S (<a href="http://parts.igem.org/Part:BBa_K823022"target="_blank">BBa_K823022</a>) which comes from the LMU-Munich 2012 iGEM team.</p>
