MetE codes for the methyl-transferase for methionine synthesis. Since methionine is required for E.coli growth, by introducing the MetE gene into plasmid desired for insert it can be used to differentiate between E.coli cells that have successfully taken up the insert and those that have not in a medium lacking methionine.
