Description
This plasmid is designed to facilitate the easiest expression of proteins possible. It contains an HSP70A-RBCS2 fusion promoter attached to an RBCS2 intron, flanked by the iGEM prefix and suffix. There is an RBCS2 3' UTR after the suffix. Additionally, there is a complete Hygromycin B resistance cassette downstream, allowing for selection.
The suffix can be removed and replaced with the coding sequence of a heterologous protein. Furthermore, the entire fusion-promoter-intron sequence can be removed with the prefix and suffix and replaced by an alternate promoter to compare expression levels between Chlamydomonas promoters.
Notes
We amplified the pHSP70A-RBCS2-Intron region with the iGEM prefix/suffix added to the ends. We then amplified 3'UTR RBCS2 with PstI upstream' and SpeI downstream. The hygromycin B resistance cassette was then amplified with XbaI upstream and SpeI downstream. pSB1C3 was amplified with primers which removed ligated with digested pHSP70A-RBCS2-Intron and pSB1C3 for final assembly.
