| Further information: | pMaMIL4 provides resistance to ampicillin, but is sensitive to chloramphenicol. The phasmid contains the replication origin of the single-stranded DNA phage f1, so that it can be rapidly switched between the plasmid and the phage mode (ssDNA) of replication. The latter requires infection with a helper phage, e.g. M13KO7. The phasmid was designed for site-specific mutagenesis where the mutated sequence can be physically linked with a selectable marker (cam). More than one mutagenesis round is possible via switching from ampicillin resistance to chloramphenicol resistance. Since the length and the sequence of the 5' and 3' untranslated regions of the mIL4 gene are not exactly known, there is uncertainty as to the cutting frequency of the restriction enzymes indicated. After mutagenesis, use mutS strains for primary transformation (e.g. sup(-) strain WK6mutS, sup(+) strain BMH71-18mutS); for segregation of possible mutants: sup(-) strains (e.g. WK6). pMaMIL4 contains the mouse interleukin 4 gene (mIL4) with flanking regions, a fragment of approx. 600 bp; this segment has not been sequenced (Lee et al. (1986)), but is biologically active. |
