- Comments
- Strains with this marker must have their medium supplemented with thymine (25ug/ml). This is true even for rich medium such as LB. Otherwise thymine starvation can lead to thymineless death.
- The primers used to make this knockout were GGCGTCGGCTCTGGCAGGATGTTTCGTAATTAGATAGCCACCGGCGCTTTATTCCGGGGATCCGTCGACC and TCTGGGCATATCGTCGCAGCCCACAGCAACACGTTTCCTGAGGAACCATGTGTAGGCTGGAGCTGCTTCG the bolded sequence matches the pKD13 template
