Cloning Strategy for Host-Prophage Junctions in S. maltophilia T13 Using Smp131

This study outlines a detailed cloning strategy for the host-prophage junctions in Stenotrophomonas maltophilia T13 that has been lysogenized with the Smp131 prophage. It features sketches of the circular Smp131 genome showcasing the genes surrounding the predicted attP site, as well as the host chromosome with its attB site. Additionally, a map illustrates the positions of genes post-integration of Smp131. Key PCR primers are provided, used for amplifying regions of interest following digestion with HincII and NaeI, enabling effective sequencing for comparative analysis.

(A) Sketch depicting the circular Smp131 genome and genes near the predicted attP site. Arrows represent the genes and predicted attP site. (B) Sketch showing the host S. maltophilia T13 chromosome and its attB site. (C) Map showing relative positions of genes after Smp131 integration into host S. maltophilia T13. Primers used in PCR were: L1; 5’-TGAAAGGTGCCATGACCACACG-3’; L2, 5’-GCGTTGCCAAGGTCAGATCGG-3’; L3; 5’-CGCATCGCACTCTAGGAAGTGAAG-3’; L4, 5’-AACTGCCAGAACCTCTGCAGTG-3’; R1, 5’-CTCTTGTCCTCGCTGTCGGT-3’; R2, 5’-TGATAGCCCTATTTTCAAGGGC-3’; R3, 5’-AGGCCCAGCAGCGCA-3’; R4, 5’-TGCCTGCCGCCAGCT-3’. S. maltophilia T13 chromosome containing prophage Smp131 was digested with HincII and NaeI. The fragments were self-ligated and the circularized DNA was then used as the templates for inverse PCR. Amplicons obtained were sequenced for comparison.
