Further information: | The plasmid was constructed as follows: 1) the SmaI fragment from pFA6-YFP-NatMX6, containing the enhanced yellow-green fluorescent variant of the A. victoria green fluorescent protein DNA (EYFP), was inserted into the EcoRV opened pKSoriT vector, resulting in pKSoriT-yfp; 2) the Gateway reading frame cassette B (rfB, from Invitrogen) was cloned into the SmaI linearized pKSoriT-yfp vector. As a result, the rfB cassette was fused in phase to the C-terminal EYFP coding sequence. pRH008 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 pRH008, 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 permits counterselection. 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 LT726893.1. |
