| Further information: | The mouse cysteinyl aspartate specific proteinase 12 cDNA (caspase-12, mCASP-12) has been mutated by replacing a cysteine codon at amino acid position 298 by an alanine codon, resulting in the loss of the PstI site in the coding sequence. pCAGGS-mCASP-12-C298A is useful for highly efficient expression of mutated mouse caspase-12 under the control of the chicken β-actin/rabbit β-globin hybrid promoter (AG) and the human CMV-IE enhancer in various mammalian cells. The expressed protein is catalytic inactive. The AG promoter sequence consists of the chicken β-actin promoter, the first exon and part of the first intron (that seems to have a strong enhancer-like activity) linked to a rabbit β-globin fragment, consisting of a 3' part of the second intron (inclusive a branch point which is required for normal splicing reactions) and a 5' part of the third exon. When cloning a fragment downstream from the lac promoter it may be advisable to use lacI(q) strains in order to prevent fortuitous expression of a possibly noxious polypeptide. Name mentioned in Kalai et al. (2003) is pCAGGS-caspase-12 C298A. |
