DNA containing the coding sequence of TetR (class B, from Tn10) was chemically synthesized (gBlocks dsDNA fragments, IDT). This gBlocks fragment and a NdeI-HindIII-digested pET21b backbone were assembled together using a 2x Gibson master mix (NEB). Gibson assembly was possible due to a 23 bp sequence shared between the NdeI-HindIII-cut pET21b backbone and the gBlocks fragment. These 23 bp regions were incorporated during the synthesis of gBlocks fragments. The resulting plasmids were sequence verified by Sanger sequencing (Eurofins, Germany).
