-### T7 promoter improvement

-Previous literature has shown that protein expression in CFPS is more
-rapid from endogenous promoters relative to the T7 promoter. Thus, we
-designed an improved T7 promoter that contains adjacent -10 and -35
-sites, as well as an UP element. The promoter is regulated by flanking
-lacO sites to prevent expression of toxic genes until properly induced.
-We cloned this promoter into our expression vector using Gibson
