Description
This plasmid allows the integration of a transcriptional flip-flop into bacterial chromosomes using the miniTn7BB characteristics. Single copy may improve the function of regulatory circuits, as bistable systems.
Notes
The BBa_K177038 BioBrick was inserted within the BCS of pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm by EcoRI and PstI clonning.
In order to construct the pUC18Sfi-miniTn7BB-Gm delivery plasmid, the miniTn7BB-Gm transposon was cleaved from the commercial plasmid pMA (Mr. Gene) with SfiI and ligated to SfiI-digested pUC18Sfi. This strategy removes all multi-cloning restriction sites from pUC18Sfi, except for the flanking SfiI, thus guaranteeing that the unique sites in the transposon are not duplicated. The remove of the multi-cloning restriction sites was verified by analytic digestions.
Source
The miniTn7BB-Gm minitransposon was synthesized commercially and pUC18SfiI is a commercial vector.
