Assembly Plasmids


Assembly Plasmids


Assembly plasmids are assembled using a 1-5 bridge connector and part plasmids 6-8b in a single BsaI golden gate reaction. An assembled plasmid then contains an antibiotic resistance gene, origin of replication, origin of transfer, barcode sequence, and a part 1-5 bridge, which contains a colored reporter protein coding sequence. The same promoters, terminators, and origins of transfer are used within all assemblies. Each 1-5 bridge connector has a different barcode and reporter protein coding sequence making it easy to determine which plasmid each colony contains. This design eliminates as many variables as possible, allowing the origin of replication to be the single largest factor determining whether the bacteria sustain and express the plasmid. Using golden gate assembly, we were able to assemble these plasmids in just one reaction with the help of overhangs common to each part type.
