Design Notes
Two major design considerations were made during the designing of this sequence. One, we had to make sure that each of the homology arms were at least 500 bp as they had to be of sufficient length to allow a recombination event in B. subtilis to occur. Two, we wanted to make sure that the sequence was something that would be easy for us to acquire and make, so we chose a portion of the pOpen yeast plasmid as this was something we had a lot of in the lab we were working with.

These homology arms originally come from the pOpen Yeast plasmid and contain the portion of this plasmid that codes for the Kanamycin resistance gene.
