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-Lennox
Selection marker:ampicillin(100μg/ml)
Temperature:37°C
Genotype:F'lacIq lacZΔM15 proA+B+araΔ(lac-proAB)rpsL(?80dlacZΔM15)attB::(ctx::lacZ)(source:Kolmar et al.,1995)
Phenotype:ampR strR
Properties:The ctx::lacZ fusion integrated at the attB site is tagged with the ampicillin resistance gene.
Further information:This FHK12 strain was constructed as follows:
First FHK11 was constructed from strain JM83(Yanish-Perron et al.,1985)by chromosomal integration of the lacZ gene under control of the V.cholerae ctxAB promoter from plasmid pLDR10-ctx::lacZ at the phageλattB site(Diederich et al.,1992).
FHK12 was subsequently constructed from FHK11 by F-duction(Miller,1972)with BMH71-18(source B.Müller-Hill).
The streptomycin resistance has been experimentally confirmed by BCCM/GeneCorner.
