[DIYbio] Re: Clustered essential genes, any ideas?

Maybe this island is the remnant of its ancestors. That then duplicated and mutated. 

If you have the minimal genome synthesized at one time, remember that you'll need a marker for the cells. I recommend lux :D 

So the minimal genome bacillus would glow by default (already very cool! but, it's getting even better - wait for it). When you do homologous integration, by knocking in your gene of interest you would knock out luxAB. So you can see that your experiment worked.  :D
