Part:BBa_K590017

mamHIEJKL in vector pGA3K3

This part is made by [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Washington UW iGEM Team 2011]. It includes 6 genes mamHI, mamE, mamJ, mamKL in a pGA3k3 plasmid backbone. All the genes were found essential for magnetosome formation in Magnetospirillum magneticum strain AMB-1.

Usage and Biology

Made by Gibson Cloning method instead of Standard Biobrick method, this part is in low copy backbone and it belongs to the [http://2011.igem.org/Team:Washington/Magnetosomes/Magnet_Toolkit Magnetosome Toolkit], known as the "first part of the full assembly".

The gel image on the left is HIEJKL(~9000bp), we extracted this band and "gibsoned" it with pGA3k3 plasmid backbone(~3000bp), the right image.

After Gibson cloning and transformation, cell chain formation was observed in microscopy(below) when this plasmid was transformed in E.coli.
