The Golden Gate cloning technique is used to assemble DNA parts into higher-order assemblies. Individual parts containing compatible overhangs generated by type IIS restriction enzymes are joined together using DNA ligase. The technique enables users to assemble custom transcription units (TUs) for a wide array of experimental assays. Several Golden Gate cloning systems have been developed; however, they are typically used with a narrow range of organisms. Here we describe the Multi-Kingdom (MK) cloning system that allows users to generate DNA plasmids for use in a broad range of organisms.

摘要

The Golden Gate cloning technique is used to assemble DNA parts into higher-order assemblies. Individual parts containing compatible overhangs generated by type IIS restriction enzymes are joined together using DNA ligase. The technique enables users to assemble custom transcription units (TUs) for a wide array of experimental assays. Several Golden Gate cloning systems have been developed; however, they are typically used with a narrow range of organisms. Here we describe the Multi-Kingdom (MK) cloning system that allows users to generate DNA plasmids for use in a broad range of organisms.
