Ura3 auxotrophic selection marker
This part is the Ura3 auxotrophic selection marker for Yarrowia lipolytica.
Usage and Biology
The URA3 auxotrophic selection marker (BBa_K2983005) is composed of the URA3 promoter (BBa_K2983002), URA3 gene (BBa_K2983003) and the URA3 terminator (BBa_K2983004).
The Ura3 gene encodes the orotidine 5'-phosphate decarboxylase, an enzyme (EC. 4.1.1.23) that catalyzes the decarboxylation of orotidine monophosphate to uridine monophosphate in the pyrimidine ribonucleotides synthesis pathway. In the absence of this enzyme, the cells are able to grow only if uracil or uridine are present in the media.
It is a wildly used auxotrophic selection marker in yeast.
