Host range: | Escherichia coli Mammalian cells; SV40 permissive cells |
Parental clone: | pcDNA3; pBATbetacat |
Further information: | The plasmid was constructed by excising the human β-catenin coding sequence from pBATbetacat with XbaI/SalI, blunting with Pfu DNA polymerase, and ligating this fragment into the EcoRV-opened pcDNA3 vector. There is uncertainty about the presence of a second enhancer in the SV40 early promoter. The absence of a second enhancer in this promoter may cause bacterial leakage expression of the Tn5 neomycin resistance gene. This would cause transformed E. coli cells to be resistant to kanamycin, although growth should be reduced compared to growth on medium containing ampicillin. The nucleotide sequence of this plasmid corresponds with the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database accession number LT727265.1. The nucleotide sequence of the human β-catenin cDNA corresponds with the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database accession number X87838.1. Since the nucleotide sequence upstream of and downstream from the human β-catenin insert could not be traced back, there is uncertainty as to the cutting frequency of the restriction enzymes, except for the sites that were analysed in the authenticity test. Name mentioned in Van de Craen et al. (1999) is pCDNA-β-catenin. Other name of the plasmid is pcdna3betacatenin#3. |
