Revision as of 19:25, 29 October 2011

The parts in the [http://2011.igem.org/Team:UPO-Sevilla/Foundational_Advances/MiniTn7/Overview miniTn7 BioBrick toolkit] are based on the excellent set of miniTn7 derivatives developed by Choi et al. (2005)[http://www.nature.com/nmeth/journal/v2/n6/abs/nmeth765.html]. All our derivatives contain the Tn7-L and Tn7-R ends, an antibiotic resistance gene flanked by FRTs and the prefix/suffix BioBrick-compatible multi-cloning site. Constructs will be available in derivatives of pUC18-Sfi, (high copy number, replicative in any E. coli strain), or derivatives of pUC18-R6KT (medium copy number, replicative only in E. coli strains expressing the pir gene). Specialized miniTn7 vectors containing promoters for gene expression or reporters for expression measurement will also be constructed. In addition, we will provide a portable attTn7 (Tn7 attachment site) to allow using the miniTn7 BioBrick toolkit in any organism as well as in plasmids.

Data for our characterized new parts

  • pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm plasmid (BBa_K510000): this plasmid harbor the basic miniTn7 which may be used for integration of BioBricks in single copy into the genomes of non-enteric bacteria, in which it is non-replicative, at the conserved attTn7 site.
  • pUC18R6KT-miniTn7BB-Gm plasmid (BBa_K510012): this plasmid may be used for transposition of BioBricks into the genome of any bacterium without the pir gen thanks to is R6K replication origin.
  • attTn7 or Tn7 insertion site (BBa_K510022): recognition and insertion site of the Tn7 transposon and its synthetic derivatives.

Moreover, we have constructed these new parts:

(Because of the successful characterization of the modules that make these new plasmids, no functional problems are expected)

  • pUC18SfiI-miniTn7BB-Km (BBa_K510002): replace of the gentamycin resistance cassette of pUC18Sfi-miniTn7-Gm by a kanamycin resistance cassette amplified from pSB4K5.
  • pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm-RBS+RFP (BBa_K510037): This plasmid can be used for promoter characterization purposes inserting the promoter using the prefix restriction sites, measuring the RFP fluorescence. Also the characterization can be performed in single copy by integrating the device in the genome of the working organism using the transposase machinery of the Tn7 transposon.
  • pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm-lacZ+GFP (BBa_K510040): This plasmid can be used for promoter characterization purposes inserting the promoter using the prefix restriction sites, measuring LacZ-alpha and/or GFP-AAV expresion. Also the characterization can be performed in single copy by integrating the device in the genome of the working organism.
  • pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm-RFP (BBa_K5100__): .
  • (BBa_K510041): This plasmid can be used for visualization purposes or to brand a strain because of its insertion in the genome of the working organism and split the antibiotic resistance cassette with the temporary expression of Flp recombinase. Also it is a useful plasmid for clonning BioBricks into the miniTn7 module by removing the RFP cassette. Negative clones of a transformation would be in red colour.
  • pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm-bistable_switch (BBa_K510043): This plasmid allows the integration of a transcriptional flip-flop into bacterial chromosomes using the pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm (BBa_K51000) characteristics. Single copy may improve the function of regulatory circuits, as bistable systems.
  • pUC18R6KT-miniTn7BB-Gm-bistable_switch (BBa_K510044): This plasmid allows the integration of a transcriptional flip-flop into bacterial chromosomes using the pUC18R6KT-miniTn7BB-Gm (BBa_K510012)characteristics. Single copy may improve the function of regulatory circuits, as bistable systems.
  • pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm-improved_flipflop_(module I) (BBa_K510045): This plasmid allows the integration of the improved flip-flop (module I) (part: BBa_K51019) into bacterial chromosomes using the pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm (BBa_K51000) characteristics. Single copy may improve the function of regulatory circuits, as bistable systems.
  • pUC18R6KT-miniTn7BB-Gm-improved_flipflop_(module I) (BBa_K510046): This plasmid allows the integration of the improved flip-flop (module I) (part: BBa_K51019) into bacterial chromosomes using the pUC18R6KT-miniTn7BB-Gm (BBa_K51012) characteristics. Single copy may improve the function of regulatory circuits, as bistable systems.

We have also submitted these new parts:
