Design Notes

No special considerations. Please note that preliminary sequencing suggests that there may be a problem with the SpeI site of the construct submitted. If this is confirmed, we will submit a revised version and remove this note.


Source

Amplified from genomic DNA of Xenorhabdus luminescens strain Hb, obtained from the National Collection of Industrial and Marine Bacteria, Aberdeen, UK, strain NCIMB 12670.
