Part:pSB1C3

High copy BioBrick assembly plasmid

pSB1C3 is a high copy number plasmid (RFC [10]) carrying chloramphenicol resistance.

The replication origin is a pUC19-derived pMB1 (copy number of 100-300 per cell).

pSB1C3 has terminators bracketing its MCS which are designed to prevent transcription from *inside* the MCS from reading out into the vector. The efficiency of these terminators is known to be < 100%. Ideally we would construct a future set of terminators for bracketing a MCS that were 100% efficient in terminating both into and out of the MCS region.

Usage and Biology

In Spring 2011, pSB1C3 was sequenced using several primers: Pre-R, Suff-F, VF2, VR, and internal primers for the origin and resistance. The current sequence reflects the most recent sequencing of pSB1C3 (w/ BBa_J04450, located in SP 4000 Well 2A).
