Species:Escherichia coli
Group:K12
Strain designation:DH5αpir116 variant
Accession number:LMBP 7961
Depositor:Prof.Dr M.Herrington1
1 Biology Dept,Concordia University,Montreal,Canada
It was obtained from Dr G.Philips2
2 College of Veterinary Medicine,Dept of Microbiology,Iowa State University,Ames,Iowa,USA
Containment level:This strain has been assigned the containment level Class 1 following the European Directive 2009/41/EC on the contained use of genetically modified organisms,and its updates(see also the Belgian risk group classification).
Medium:LB-Miller
Selection marker:/
Temperature:37°C
Genotype:endA1 hsdR17 glnV44(=supE44)thi-1 recA1 gyrA96 relA1Φ80dlacΔ(lacZ)M15Δ(lacZYA-argF)U169 zdg-232::Tn10 uidA::pir116
Phenotype:TetS NalS
Properties:This is a host strain for R6Kγori plasmids.In pir116 strains,R6K-containing plasmids replicate like high-copy pUC plasmids.
Further information:Personal communications of Prof.Dr M.Herrington:The E.coli K12 DH5αpir116 variant appears to have lost the Tn10 and is consequently tetracycline sensitive.
BCCM/GeneCorner could not experimentally confirm the nalidixic acid resistance,conferred by gyrA96,nor the tetracycline resistance,conferred by Tn10.
