An important part in the iGEM competition is the collabration of your own team with other teams. These collaborations are fully in line with the dedications of the iGEM Foundation on education and competition, the advancement of syn- thetic biology, and the development of an open community and collaboration. Collaborations between groups of (undergrad and overgrad) students can lead to nice products, as we have tried to provide one for you in 2015. In order to compile a cloning guide, several iGEM teams from all over the world have been con- tacted to cooperate on this. Finally fifiteen teams contributed in a fantastic way and a cloning guide consisting of the basics about nine different cloning methods and experiences of teams working with them has been realized. Without the help of all collaborating teams this guide could never have been realized, so we will thank all teams in advance. This guide may be of great help when new iGEM teams (edition 2016 and later) are at the point of designing their project. How to assemble the construct for you project, is an important choice which is possibly somewhat easier to make after reading this guide.

Type II restriction endonuclease activity was detected in these bacteria. The enzyme was purified and the molecular weight of the native protein estimated by gel filtration and SDS-PAGE. The optimum pH, temperature and salt requirements were determined. Quality control assays showed the complete absence of “nonspecific nucleases.” Restriction cleavage analysis and DNA sequencing of restriction fragments allowed the unequivocal demonstration of 5´GAG↓CTC3´ as the recognition sequence. This enzyme was named BpuAmI and is apparently a neoschizomer of the prototype restriction endonuclease SacI. This is the first report of an isoschizomer and/or neoschizomer of the prototype SacI identified in the genus Bacillus.

In addition to its recognition sequence, DNA, the REase recognizes it as nonself and subjects it to restric- GGTACC, the enzyme binds and cleaves a number of noncanoni- tion. Should REases be highly specific for targeting the invading cal sequences (i.e., TGTACC, GTTACC, GATACC, GGAACC, foreign DNA? It is often considered to be the case. However, when GGTCCC, GGTATC, GGTACG, GGTACT), with the binding bacteria harboring a promiscuous or high-fidelity variant of the affinity ranging from 8 to 35 nM (14, 15). Accordingly, many of fi REase were challenged with bacteriophages, tness was maximal these sites are cleaved efficiently with kcat values varying from 0.06 − − under conditions of catalytic promiscuity. We also delineate pos- to 0.15 min 1 vs. 4.3 min 1 for canonical sites (15). The promis- sible mechanisms by which the REase recognizes the chromosome cuous activity of the enzyme is directed by a number of cofactors. as self at the noncanonical sites, thereby preventing lethal dsDNA In the presence of the physiological levels of Mg2+, the most breaks.
