+ | * The current constructs consist of GFP behind promoters. GFP is not known to be hazardous. However, in the simple fimE constructs, when the promoter starts in the configuration pointing upstream, DNA upstream of the constructs may be transcribed by the cell. | ||
+ | * In the final design, the terminator that sits in the population variation generator may not be 100% efficient. Thus, the efficiency of the terminator should be tested before genes that are hazardous when co-expressed are placed into the system. | ||
