Lambda Beta recombinase optimized for expression in B. subtilis
Recombination-mediated genetic engineering (recombineering) utlises homologous recombination to facilitate genetic modifications at any desired target by flanking the mutated sequence with homologous regions. Multiplex Automated Genome Engineering (MAGE) is a method for rapid and efficient targeted programming and evolution of cells through cyclical recombineering using multiple single-stranded DNA oligonucleotides (oligos). The MAGE protocol utilises the λ Red recombination system in combination with an (temporary) inactivation of the mismatch repair system and consists of 7 steps that can be done with standard laboratory equipment (Wang, 2009). As MAGE utilises oligos, only the Beta protein of the λ Red system is required. This BioBrick encodes an optimised coding sequence for lambda phage derived beta recombinase. When expressed in Bacillus subtilis, oligo recombineering efficiencies were increased. (Please see Results).
