Synteny of Ralstonia’s Vgr linked toxin/antitoxin clustersclusters

If you would like to re-analyze the files used in this dataset, the inputs are located in a repository on our FigShare (see link above)

Methods:

The interative synteny analysis files were created using Clinker. The documentation for Clinker can be found here Reference: clinker & clustermap.js: Automatic generation of gene cluster comparison figures. Gilchrist, C.L.M., Chooi, Y.-H., 2020. Bioinformatics. doi: https://doi.org/10.1093/bioinformatics/btab007

Plasmid Maps

These plasmids are described in the linked publications. All plasmid maps are provided as read-only Benchling links. If you prefer a different cloning software, Benchlings allows exports as genbank files (.gb). If you find a broken link, or you’re looking for a vector sequence that I’ve overlooked, please email me

Parental Plasmids

Most of the plasmids I use frequently (e.g. pST-Blue, pUC18miniTn7t-Gm, & pRC* series for Ralstonia solanacearum GMI1000) are available online (PubMed or via manufacturers). However, I had to track down or reconstruct a few plasmid sequences. Those are listed below with original citations.
