pSB3C5 is a functional low to medium copy plasmid but does not propagate at high copy. When transformed into TOP10 cells, pSB3C5-I52001 does not transform as expected. When pSB3C5-I52001 is cut with NotI, self-ligated (to eliminate ccdB positive selection marker) and tranformed into TOP10, lots of colonies are obtained. However, pSB3C5-I52001 does not give high miniprep yields due to mutations in BBa_I52001 that render it nonfunctional as a high copy origin. pSB3C5-I52001 works fine as a plasmid but is not as convenient for plasmid DNA purification.
