Design Notes

we isolated the rib-gene-cluster from the genomic sequence of shewanella oneidensis MR-1. We designed our primers in a way that enabled us to use Gibson Assembly to ligate the rib-gene-cluster with pSB1C3. Insofar, we designed four primers to generate homologous overlaps between pSB1C3 and the rib-gene-cluster:

  • pSB1C3_fwd_Rib
    AGCTTGAACAACAGTTGTAATACTAGTAGCGGCCGCTGCAGTC
  • pSB1C3_rev_Rib
    TCGAGTACTGACCAATTCATCTCTAGAAGCGGCCGCGAATTCC
  • Rib_fwd
    GAATTCGCGGCCGCTTCTAGATGAATTGGTCAGTACTCGATAAC
  • Rib_rev
    CTGCAGCGGCCGCTACTAGTATTACAACTGTTGTTCAAGCTG


we eliminated three illegal restriction sites: Therefore we substituted one base per illegal restriction site by using PCR. The designed PCR-primers generated homologue overlaps, thus enabling Gibson Assembly afterwards:

  • Pst1 at 234 bp (changing CTGCA^G to CTGtAG)
  • Pst1 at 1644 bp (changing CTGCA^G to CTGtAG)
  • EcoR1 at 1840 bp (changing G^AATTC to GAATTt)

These primers were used to eliminate the illegal restriction sites:

  • pst1-234 fwd (38 bp)

  • pst1-234 rev (32 bp)

In order to combine the rib-gene-cluster with its accordant promoter and RBS we used the [http://2013.igem.org/Team:Bielefeld-Germany/Labjournal/ProtocolsPrograms#Standard_BioBrick_Assembly Standard BioBrick Assembly Suffix Insertion].
