Description
sacB encodes the Bacillus subtilis levansucrase,which is the enzyme catalyzing hydrolysis of sucrose and synthesis of levans(high-molecular-weight fructose polymers). It is lethal to gram-negative bacteria E-coli. It works with cat as an alternative method for inserting BioBricks into the genome by using homologous recombination instead of restriction digestion, with the added bonus of not leaving a marker behind in the product.
