Plasmid sets used to measure translation initiation from non-canonical start codons. Plasmids varied in origin of replication (copy number), promoter and reporter gene characteristics. (A) Set of 64 pET20b(+) plasmids containing medium-copy pBR322 origin, T7 promoter and GFP reporter. (B) Set of 12 plasmids containing low-copy p15A origin, RhaPBAD rhamnose-inducible native Escherichia coli promoter and GFP reporter. (C) Set of 12 plasmids containing low-copy p15A origin, RhaPBAD rhamnose-inducible native E. coli promoter and nanoluciferase reporter. (D) Set of 12 very-low-copy bacterial artificial chromosomes (BAC) containing RhaPBAD rhamnose-inducible native E. coli promoter and nanoluciferase reporter.
