Homologous Recombination Low Efficiency: <1/104
Site-specific SSoligo-mediated Recombination High Efficiency: 1/10 Exo: 5’-3’ exonuclease Beta: single stranded DNA binding protein, mediate recombination Gam: inhibits RecBCD and SbcCD, linear dsDNA degrading nucleases
Goal: Construction of more efficient recombination system through mutagenesis DL Court, 2006 Method: Error prone PCR, oligo-mediated mutagenesis
Advantages • Easy readout: selection on antibiotics • Currently no biobricks for improved homologous recombination system • Potential for combinatorial synthesis of biobricks via HR
