Abstract:
Parageobacillus thermoglucosidasius is a promising chassis for producing chemicals and fuels. Here we designed, built and tested the pMTL60000 modular plasmids containing standardised Gram-positive and Gram-negative replicons, selectable markers and application-specific modules. The pMTL60000 modular plasmids were characterised with regard to transformation efficiency, segregational stability, copy number and compatibility.
