[phnB]Strain Comments: - pBW30 is the same as pLD54 except for PstI site in  bla.  pLD54 host is  pir+, recA1, lacIQ and CamR.
- Δ(codB-lacI)3-- is a deletion of the entire  lac operon, from the strain Hfr 3000 X74 of Jacob. Refs. on extent of deletion: Sung et al.1987,J.Bact.169:2639; Gerdes et al.2001                                                                                         
- Δ(codB-lacI)3-- Shown by Durfee et al. to extend from codon 292 of yahG through mhpE
- Δ(codB-lacI)3-- Shown by Ferrandez et al. 1997 to extend to mhpD
- ΔuidA4::pir-116-- Allows plasmids with an R6Kγ origin to replicate to high copy number
- rph-1-- is a 1 bp deletion that results in frameshift over last 15 codons and has polar effect on  pyrE leading to suboptimal pyrimidine levels on minimal medium.(Jensen 1993 JBact.175:3401)                                                                  
- [phnB]-- functional  phn locus from  E. coli B
