Part: BBa_K1937002 (pSB1C3-OriKan)
(Chassis E. coli/B. subtilis, carrier plasmid pSB1C3) Length: 2510 bp
Background: While Bacillus subtilis is of huge interest for a growing number of iGEM projects, it is not easy to develop new parts as it is required that they registered after sub-cloning in the E. coli plasmid pSB1C3. During the iGEM Toulouse 2016 project, we had the idea to create a part that could turn any pSB1C3-based plasmid in a shuttle vector (E. coli/B. subtilis). This BioBrick is a part developed by the Toulouse 2016 iGEM team (http://2016.igem.org/Team:Toulouse_France) from the pSBBs0K-P (BBa_K823026) previously developed by the 2012 Munich iGEM team.

Creation:
The BBa_K1937002 part contains the repU origin of replication of B. subtilis and the kanamycin resistance gene for B. subtilis.
It was obtained by amplifying the repU-Kan region of pSBBs0K-P (BBa_K1351040 or BBa_K823026) using primers OriKan forward (5’ cacagaatcaggggataacgcaggaaagaaACATGTAGTTATAAGTGACTAAACAAATAACTAAATAGATGGG) and OriKan reverse (5’ gttcctggccttttgctggccttttgctcaACATGTCGCAAAATGGCCCGATTTAAG). The resulting fragment was sub-cloned in the pSB1C3 between the EcoRI and PstI restriction sites.
Validation:
We successfully transformed E. coli and selected clones on chloramphenicol. Likewise, we successfully transformed B. subtilis and selected clones on kanamycine. Presence of the pSB1C3-OriKan plasmid was demonstrated in B. subtilis by PCR checking.
The part sequence has been verified by sequencing.

Interest:
This part can be sub-cloned in any pSB1C3 plasmid to make it compatible with B. subtilis. It will therefore greatly simplified the use of Bacillus subtilis as a chassis and the registration of new Bacillus-aimed parts.
