Abstract

The present invention is related to a method for the selection of recombinant clones having integrated a gene of interest and a nucleotide sequence encoding a functional antidote protein to a toxic molecule, wherein said recombinant clones are the ones which survive following their integration into a host cell comprising in its genome a nucleotide sequence encoding said toxic molecule. The present invention is also related to a nucleic acid construct, a vector comprising said nucleic acid construct, a host cell and a cloning and/or sequencing kit for performing said method.
