RBS prediction
Is there an online or otherwise easy to use tool for finding RBS sites?

I've used TIGR's software to do RBS prediction. The program is called RBS finder. Also, if you have a specific sequence you want to test, you can use Stormo's work:

Homologous recombination in E. coli
If anyone has experience with homologous recombination in E. coli please check out the Standard E. coli Strain for BioBricks project and annotate the page with your feedback and comments. Please include any protocols or materials information you might have on the appropriate pages and link to them from the standard strain project page as well. Any and all advice is appreciated.

See Standard E. coli Strain for BioBricks for comments. Can add more detail later.--Kathleen
