Introduction
The SpecR cassette is composed of the promoter PaadA and the resistance gene specR (aadA). The resistance gene is based on part (BBa_K1323012), but it was codon optimized for expression into S.elongatus.
This gene codes for an aminoglycoside adenylyltransferase , which inactivates spectinomycin by adding a adenyl group. Therefore, this cassette allows the selection of yeast transformants upon addition of spectinomycin into the media.
Part characterization
The part (BBa_K3930032) was used to select for genomic integration of part (BBa_K3930026). Transformants were plated onto BG11 Petri plates containing 10 μg.ml-1 spectinomycin. The Toulouse INSA UPS team managed to select transformants with this selection marker (for more details, check the (BBa_K3930026) part page)
