HA, HA epitope tagged; flag, FLAG epitope tagged; IG, intergenic between yeiR and glmS (adjacent to the Tn7 site) unless otherwise noted; FRT, the antibiotic cassette was resolved using Flp recombinase, leaving a single FRT sequence; TT, TfoX-mediated transformation of a tfoX-overexpressing version of the indicated strain with the indicated genomic DNA (gDNA) or with a PCR-SOE product generated using the indicated primers and templates.
The rscS/sypF chimera substituted the HPT domain of rscS with that of sypF. It was positioned either at the nonnative site between yeiR and glmS (“IG”) under the control of PrscS or at the native rscS location in the ΔsypF ΔrscS background (with the chimera repairing the rscS deletion).
