Design Notes

When designing the pRS42H plasmid backbone, several factors were taken into account:

Selection Markers: The inclusion of both hygromycin and ampicillin resistance markers allows for easy selection in both yeast and bacterial hosts. High-Copy Maintenance: The 2-micron origin of replication ensures high-copy maintenance of the plasmid in yeast cells, which is crucial for achieving high levels of gene expression. Cloning Sites: Multiple cloning sites were incorporated to facilitate the insertion of various genes and regulatory elements. Compatibility: The plasmid was designed to be compatible with standard yeast and bacterial cloning techniques, making it versatile and easy to use in different experimental setups.

The pRS42H plasmid backbone is derived from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It was constructed by integrating various functional elements, including the 2-micron origin of replication, hygromycin resistance gene, and ampicillin resistance gene, into a single vector. We would like to express our sincere gratitude to Professor Lian Jiazhang from Zhejiang University for providing the pRS42H plasmid backbone. His generous support and valuable resources have been instrumental in the success of our project.
