pSEVA331-BB with J23100-RFP



This part contains Anderson promoter J23117 and RFP coding device in pSEVA331-BB backbone. pSEVA331-BB is a broad host range plasmid converted into biobrick format, and is capable of replication in E. coli and several other Gram- bacterial species. We have verified that it also replicates in the cellulose producing bacterium Komagataeibacter rhaeticus. BBa_K1321302 is a member of the Komagataeibacter genetic engineering toolkit (parts BBa_K1321295 - BBa_K1321332). BBa_J23100 drives a high level of expression in K. rhaeticus.

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

NOTE: Because the registry's standard plasmid backbone pSB1C3 is not capable of replication in Komagataeibacter or Gluconacetobacter species, the Komagataeibacter 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 Komagataeibacter toolkit available for the synthetic biology community, Imperial iGEM 2014 team has made it freely available in AddGene or upon request, with quality control provided (see Experience).
