Table 1 Summary of individual components of the insertion vector

From: Generation and analysis of a barcode-tagged insertion mutant library in the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe

DNA sequence

Function

ATG-less λ buffer

Protect the lexA-HSP70 promoter and the barcode from degradation

HSP70 promoter

Drive the expression of adjacent genes

lexA site

The binding site for LexA-VP16 protein for inducible activation of the HSP70 promoter

Random barcode

A specific DNA tag in each mutant for tracking mutant frequency

ura4+ ORF/DNA

The selectable marker
