Backbone

  • Vector backbone
    Biobrick family of vectors
  • Vector type
    Synthetic Biology
  • Selectable markers
    Amp

Growth in Bacteria

Depositor Comments

Note from depositor regarding growing this plasmid: W used DH10B, plated on LB/carb, and grew the plasmid up in TB medium plus 2% glycerol and 100 ug/mL carbenicillin. It's key to not grow the cells up too long, either on the plate or in the liquid medium, and probably best to harvest the cells in early stationary phase.
