Making a Broad Host Range BioBrick Vector

As part of the iGEM2007 competition, the University of Edinburgh team sought to make a broad host range BioBrick vector that could be used to transfer BioBrick constructs into hosts other than Escherichia coli. Since we were working on production of flavour and pigment compounds in yoghurt, we initially wanted a shuttle vector that could operate in both E. coli and in Lactobacillus spp. We contacted Prof. Mike Gasson at the Institute of Food Research, Norwich, and he and his colleague, Dr. Claire Shearman, kindly provided us with vector pTG262.
