All the parts listed in our collection have common attributes in modification. All 5 composite parts have promoter parts added to amplify the expression of the enzymes such as Acid phosphatase and HorseRadish Peroxidase. BBa_K4509669 and BBa_4509769 possess a metal sensitive and a constitutive promoter respectively. The constitutive promoter reduces the burden of the cell as well. Following this, we have BBa_4509569, BBa_4509869 and BBa_4509420, each of which contains different constitutive promoters that increase the expression of the enzymes while reducing cell burden.
