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 and the fluorescence levels were measured by flow cytometer. It was found that the fluorescence level is higher is high copy plasmid:
