Generating heterologous synthetic marker and reporter genes. (A) Linear maps of pRS-AsTEF1p-LacZ and pRS-AsTEF1p-ScRAD51-HYG3 plasmids. (B) The AsTEF1p-LacZ reporter gene and the HYG3 resistance marker were tested in Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4741. The presence of an active β-galactosidase was detected by adding X-Gal to the centre of the transformation plate (left panel, circle indicates the area of X-Gal application). The presence and function of the HYG3 marker was tested by transforming S. cerevisiae with pRS-AsTEF1p-ScRAD51-HYG3 and selecting the transformants in the presence of 100 µg/mL of hygromycin (right).
