Genecorner:

-

Cloned DNA: Aequorea victoria green fluorescent protein DNA (GFP); mutated sequence
Promoter: -
Ribosome
binding site:
Ribosome binding site (RBS); synthetic sequence
Terminator: -
Selection marker: Neomycin (neo; kanamycin (kan))
Replicon: Escherichia coli plasmid R6K origin; defective pir gene
Broad-host-range plasmid RK2/RP4 origin of transfer (oriT)
Host range: Escherichia coli; use strains supplying the R6K pir function
Gram-negative bacterial strains
Parental clone: pVIK108; pTB93F
Further information: This plasmid was constructed as follows: 1) pVIK107 was digested with SalI and Psp1406I (AclI); 2) the resulting fragments were filled in with T4 DNA polymerase and ligated again, screening for a plasmid, pVIK108, that lacks the lacZ gene and contains the neomycin resistance gene and the R6K and RP4 derived segments as present in pVIK107. Because of the ligation, the original SalI site was restored in pVIK108; 3) the SalI fragment from pTB93F, containing the mutated GFP sequence, was inserted into the SalI site from pVIK108, resulting in pVIK165.
pVIK165 contains a variant of GFP containing a threonine residue at amino acid position 65 instead of the wild type serine residue.
It also incorporates a prokaryotic ribosome binding site.
pVIK165 is a suicide vector designed to create transcriptional fusions between chromosal or plasmid-encoded genes and the GFP reporter gene.
This plasmid can be used to measure transcriptional regulation of particular promoters.
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 E. coli strains expressing the tra genes of RK2/RP4 (e.g. S17-1(λpir)).
The nucleotide sequence of this plasmid corresponds with the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database accession number LT727311.1.
The nucleotide sequence of the wild type GFP cds corresponds with the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database accession number E17099.1. This was confirmed by the GeneCorner results obtained from the sequence analysis of the region between the R6K ori and the Tn5 neomycin resistance.
