Plasmid_Backbone

Part:BBa_K1680015

Designed by: Katharina Sporbeck   Group: iGEM15_Tuebingen   (2015-09-17)

pRS315 yeast shuttle vector with Biobrick MCS

This part is a biobricked shuttle vectors for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It is part of a vector series with different auxotrophy markers (Part:BBa_K1680014, Part:BBa_K1680016). The vector was made compatible with the RFC10 standard and also contains a RFC10 cloning site. This part is derived from the wild type pRS315 vector Part:BBa_K950010.

  • Request concerning submission for plasmid backbone was sent to HQ on 09/17

Further - not biobrick compatible - versions of this vector with different inserts can also be found in the registry: Part:BBa_K106006, Part:BBa_K106014, Part:BBa_K106670, Part:BBa_K106672, Part:BBa_K106693, Part:BBa_K106697, Part:BBa_K106698

This part encodes for an ampicillin resistance gene and replicates to high-copy numbers in E. coli. Furthermore, the CEN6/ARS4 (Chromosome VI centromere/Autonomously Replicating Sequence 4) cassette ensures that the plasmid stays at a low copy number in yeast, because they are treated as pseudo chromosomes. The vector also encodes for a LEU2 gene, which is used as an auxotrophy marker in yeast.


This part is mutagenized version of the wild type pRS315 vector (Sikorski 1989).

A EcoRI restriction site in the backbone was removed by mutagenesis PCR (see lane 1 & 2 in figure). Exchange of the wild type MCS for RFC10 compatible MCS could be shown by restriction with SalI restriction: The enzyme linearizes the vector with old MCS (lane 3) but does not cut the vector with the new MCS, as indicated by presence of supercoiled DNA (lane 4).
