pSEVA331-Bb - pSEVA331 with biobrick prefix and suffix

This is pSEVA331 converted into a biobrick compatible format by substituting the original multiple cloning site for biobrick prefix and suffix. pSEVA331 is a broad host range plasmid, capable of replication in E.coli and several other organisms. It is capable of replication in the cellulose producing bacterium Gluconacetobacter xylinum. We have used it as our standard backbone for G.xylinus genetic engineering, in the G.xylinus toolkit (parts BBa_K1321295 - BBa_K1321332).



G.xylinus toolkit was designed to ease genetic engineering of cellulose-based biomaterials using the cellulose synthesizing bacterium Gluconacetobacter xylinus (parts Bba_K1321305 and BBa_K1321306). As no registry parts had been tested in G.xylinus, the aim of this toolkit was to determine the parts usable in G.xylinus and to characterize them in this host. pSEVA331-Bb is a non-standard broad host range plasmid capable of replication in G.xylinus and E.coli (a shuttle vector) and was selected because the registry's standard plasmid backbone pSB1C3 can not be used for G.xylinus engineering.

NOTE: Because the registry's standard plasmid backbone pSB1C3 is not capable of replication in Gluconacetobacter species, the G.xylinus genetic engineering toolkit is housed mainly in pSEVA331-Bb. pSEVA331-Bb is a non-standard backbone, which therefore can't be quality controlled by and maintained in the Registry. However, in order to make the G.xylinus toolkit available for the synthetic biology community, Imperial iGEM 2014 team has made it freely available upon request, with quality control provided (see Experience). To request, please contact Imperial iGEM 2014 team.
