Synthetic Biology Tools for the Fast-Growing Marine Bacterium .

The fast-growing nonmodel marine bacterium has recently garnered attention as a host for molecular biology and biotechnology applications. In order to further its capabilities as a synthetic biology chassis, we have characterized a wide range of genetic parts and tools for use in . These parts include many commonly used resistance markers, promoters, ribosomal binding sites, reporters, terminators, degradation tags, origin of replication sequences, and plasmid backbones.
