pdHJ1
(Plasmid #247247)

• Purpose: Generation of double and single Holliday Junction DNA
• Depositing Lab: Stephen West
• Publication: Ho et al Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2022 May 3;119(18):e2123420119. doi: 10.1073/pnas.2123420119. Epub 2022 Apr 22.

Backbone

• Vector backbone: pBluescript II SK(+)
• Backbone manufacturer: Agilent
• Backbone size w/o insert (bp): 2464
• Total vector size (bp): 3486
• Modifications to backbone: pBluescript II SK(+) was digested with SapI and PvuII and synthetic DNA fragments were added as follows 1) 25- to 30-bp homology to pBluescript II SK(+) backbone (SapI site); 2) First DNAzyme self-cleavage cassette 3) precursor DNA 4) Second DNAzyme self-cleavage cassette 5) 25- to 30-bp homology to pBluescript II SK(+) backbone (PvuII site). Homologous sequences 1 and 5 allow the precursor DNA to be inserted with the intended orientation into the backbone during Gibson assembly reactions. Priginal SapI site near ori was lost in the resultant phagemids. The sequence of the precursor DNA in pdHJ1, d1, was generated using a random sequence generator (GC content of 50%).
• Vector type: Cloning and Sequencing. As a phagemid, it allows for the rescue of single stranded DNA

Growth in Bacteria

• Bacterial Resistance(s): Ampicillin, 100 μg/mL
• Growth Temperature: 37°C
• Growth Strain(s): DH5alpha
• Growth instructions: Transforming pdHJ1 into E. coli DH5α together with an M13 helper plasmid yields single-stranded DNA.
• Copy number: High Copy
