Backbone

  • Modifications to backbone
    pAX01 was cut with SacI. The 6.3 kb fragment was religated to remove the xylR-PxylA-fragment. The PstI site in bla was removed. The vector was cut with XbaI and the 6 kb fragment religated to reduce the amount of forbidden restriction sites. The lost terminator of erm was replaced by the PCR-amplified terminator with BsaI-overhangs. The vector was opened with XbaI and ligated with the PCR product cut with BsaI (XbaI-compatible overhang). The correct direction was checked by sequencing and removal of the XbaI-site was confirmed. Finally, the MCS was amplified from pSB1C3 with PstI and NsiI overhangs, cut with PstI and NsiI and ligated into the PstI-cut vector. Correct orientation of the insert was confirmed by restriction digest and sequencing. The remaining NgoMIV sites were removed by subsequent site-directed mutagenesis.

Depositor Comments

This is an “empty” vector that lacks promoters and reporter genes. The integrative part contains the flanking homology regions, a resistance cassette for selection in B. subtilis and the multiple cloning site (MCS), containing an rfp-cassette flanked by the restriction sites EcoRI, NotI, XbaI (upstream) and SpeI, NotI and PstI (downstream). They allow cloning in BioBrick standard with selection for white colonies as a result of the removal of the rfp-insert, which – if still present – leads to formation of red colonies in E. coli.
For sequencing of inserts, use the following primers:
fwd: GGCAACCGAGCGTTCTG
rev: CTGACAGCGTTTCGATCC
