pEMBL: a new family of single stranded plasmids
Open accessAbstract
We have constructed a series of plasmids, the pEMBL family, characterized by the presence of 1) the bla gene as selectable marker, 2) a short segment coding for the alpha-peptide of beta-galactosidase and containing a multiple cloning sites polylinker, 3) the intragenic region of phage F1. pEMBL plasmids have the property of being encapsidated as single stranded DNA, upon superinfection with phage F1. These vectors have been used successfully for DNA sequencing with the dideoxy-method, and can be used for any other purpose for which M13 derivatives are used. However, the pEMBL plasmids have the advantage of being smaller than M13 vectors, and the purification of the DNA is simpler. In addition, and most importantly, long inserts have a higher stability in pEMBL plasmids than M13 vectors.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
