This construct expresses the spectinomycin resistance gene (derived from pALM32) under a constitutive promoter. It confers resistance to ampicillin (carbenicillin) in E. coli and resistance to paromomycin in transgenic Chlamydomonas lines. This construct in particular carries an intron in the middle of the spectinomycin resistance gene that lacks the miRNA stem-loop. For further details, please see Valli et al., 2016, Genome Research. In this manuscript the plasmid is under the name of spect/intron.
