Mobius Assembly Vector Toolkit
(Kit # 1000000134 )

Depositing Lab:   Naomi Nakayama

The Mobius Assembly Toolkit is a new Golden Gate Assembly framework, which combines vector toolkit simplicity with high cloning capacity. It is based on a two-level, hierarchical approach and utilizes a low-frequency cutter to reduce domestication requirements. Mobius Assembly embraces the standard overhang designs designated by MoClo, Golden Braid, and Phytobricks and is largely compatible with already available Golden Gate part libraries.

This kit will be shipped as bacterial glycerol stocks in 96-well plate format.

Description

Mobius Assembly vector toolkit consists of 16 plasmids: one mUAV, four Level 1 Acceptor Vectors, four Level 2 Acceptor Vectors and seven Auxiliary Plasmids. Mobius Assembly is a Golden Gate Assembly framework which renders both high cloning capacity and vector toolkit simplicity. It is based on a two-level approach which enables a quadruple hierarchical assembly augmentation, it has reduced domestication requirements and employs a chromogenic, visible cloning screening.


Mobius Assembly uses a two-level approach for transcriptional unit (TU) and multi-TU augmentation. Each level is comprised of four Acceptor Vectors. The standard parts stored in mUAVs are released and fused in a Level 1 reaction to form a TU. Up to four Level 1 TUs can be fused in a Level 2 reaction to form a multi-TU cassette. Switching back and forth between Level 1 and 2 leads to further expansion of multi-TUs according to the geometric sequence: 1, 4, 16, 64, ...

Resistance Color Key

Each circle corresponds to a specific antibiotic resistance in the kit plate map wells.

Inventory

Searchable and sortable table of all plasmids in kit. The Well column lists the plasmid well location in its plate. The Plasmid column links to a plasmid's individual web page.

Kit Plate Map

96-well plate map for plasmid layout. Hovering over a well reveals the plasmid name, while clicking on a well opens the plasmid page.
