Description
This part is one of the place holders published by iGEM Marburg 2019. These place holder parts can be used in assemblies to subsequently replace it with another part of the same type in a secondary Golden Gate assembly. These parts are very useful if a lot of constructs that only differ in one position are to be constructed. The advantages of using placeholder in high throughput assemblies are clear: A seven part assembly usually requires to screen multiple colonies before finding the right one, meaning that a lot of test digesting or sequencing is involved. This is feasible if one wants to construct only a few parts- for high throughput assemblies the cost and time does not scale well enough. A two part assembly however has an extremely high success rate, meaning that in most cases it is sufficient to just pick one colony to get correct sequencing results.
