Design Notes

AmpR gene encodes for the beta-lactamase (EC 3.5.2.6) protein that confers resistance against beta-lactam antibiotics (ampicillin, carbanecillin).

this construct is widely used for selection of transformants. this part contains constitutive promoter, CDS and the stop codon and can be used as a whole to insert a selection marker into composite, larger biobricks or plasmids.
