Parental clone: pMR10cat; pRH008
Further information: The plasmid was constructed by inserting the 3184 bp XbaI-XhoI fragment from pRH008, containing the Gateway reading frame cassette B (rfB, from Invitrogen) in frame with the C-terminal enhanced yellow-green fluorescent variant of the A. victoria green fluorescent protein DNA (EYFP), into the XbaI-XhoI opened pMR10cat vector.
pRH005 is a Gateway destination vector, containing the ccdB gene of the E. coli F plasmid, flanked by the bacteriophage λ attR recombination sites.
A Gateway entry clone, containing the gene of interest flanked by the λ attL recombination sites, recombines with the attR sites of pRH005, replacing the ccdB gene. As a result, the gene of interest is fused to the C-terminal EYFP coding sequence. Standard E. coli strains with the unreacted destination vector or with the by-product plasmid retaining the ccdB gene will fail to grow. Thus, this negative selection provides high-efficiency recovery of only the desired clones.
The chloramphenicol resistance gene located between the two attR sites does not permit counterselection as this resistance gene is also present in the plasmid backbone.
The plasmid RK2 par genes encode stabilization proteins that provide stable maintenance of the plasmid.
The plasmid RK2 trfA gene encodes two polypeptide products P382 and P285 of 382 and 285 amino acids respectively, using a different initiation codon within the same reading frame. The resulting protein is essential for vegetative replication.
This plasmid is useful as a low copy number, broad-host-range cloning vector.
Introduce the plasmid by electroporation, or through conjugation, using plasmid RK2/RP4 transfer functions (provided in trans by RK2/RP4, RK2/RP4-derived vectors, other replicons carrying RK2/RP4 transfer functions (e.g. pRK2073) or strains expressing the tra genes of RK2/RP4).
When cloning a fragment downstream from the lac promoter it may be advisable to use lacI(q) strains in order to prevent fortuitous expression of a possibly noxious polypeptide.
The nucleotide sequence of this plasmid corresponds with the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database accession number LT726890.1.
The nucleotide sequence of the pMR10 vector corresponds with the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database accession number AJ606312.1.
