pGA4A5, Gibson assembly plasmid (bglBrick) with pLac-GFP insert

This is a Gibson Cloning friendly 4A5 plasmid backbone that was made by [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Washington UW iGEM Team 2011] as part of the [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Washington/Magnetosomes/GibsonVectors Gibson Assembly toolkit].

Usage and Biology

This is a low copy plasmid backbone which has Ampicillin resistance, with pLac promoter and GFP. This plasmid has been altered to conform to [http://dspace.mit.edu/handle/1721.1/46747 RFC 21] standards, with arbitrary, Gibson-friendly sequences placed in between the restriction enzyme sites EcoRI-BglII, and BamHI-PstI.

Characterization

To understand how the copy number varies from plasmid to plasmid, the pGA vectors were transformed into a lacI knockout (strain [http://cgsc.biology.yale.edu/Strain.php?ID=16959 2.320]) and the fluorescence levels were measured by flow cytometry. As expected, we found the low copy pGA4A5 plasmid to express GFP at levels lower than medium and high copy plasmids.
