BBa_B0015 and Ampicillin resistance gene

We construct a vector containing ampicillin resistance gene (AmpR) for antibiotic selection. Because our ampicillin resistance gene source, pBR322, is without effective terminator that could be functional in cyanobacteria, we fused AmpR with BBa_B0015 using fusion PCR. BBa_B0015 is double terminator which is proved to be functional in cyanobacteria. Ampicillin resistance gene coding sequence and promoter is retrieved from pBR322. To insert AmpR-B0015 with EcoR1 and Pst1 cutting sites, we use site-directed mutagenesis to remove Pst1 cutting sites in AmpR nucleotide sequence.

Design Notes

To insert AmpR-B0015 with EcoR1 and Pst1 cutting sites, we use site-directed mutagenesis to remove Pst1 cutting sites in AmpR nucleotide sequence.


Source

BBa_B0015 is from iGEM distribution kit, and Ampicillin resistance gene is from pBR322 nucleotide sequence.
