Phage f1 origin
Simian virus 40 bidirectional origin (SV40)
Host range: Escherichia coli
Mammalian cells; SV40 permissive cells
Parental clone: pCR3
Further information: The plasmid was constructed as follows: the Caenorhabditis elegans cell death protein 4 cDNA (CED-4) was amplified by PCR and inserted in a modified pCR3 vector (Invitrogen). As a result, the CED-4 coding sequence was fused in phase to the N-terminal Vesicular stomatitis virus glycoprotein (VSV-G) epitope.
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.names of the plasmid are pCR3-VSVCED-4 and pCRIIIVSVced4.
The nucleotide sequence of this plasmid corresponds with the EMBL Nucleotide Sequence Database accession number LT727395.1.
The nucleotide sequence of the CED-4 cDNA corresponds with the Genbank accession number NM_065606.1.
