Further information: | The plasmid was constructed as follows: 1) The BamHI (filled in with Klenow DNA polymerase) - PstI fragment from pPLcAT14β-gal, containing the lacZ gene (missing the first 8 codons), was cloned into the KpnI (blunted with Klenow DNA polymerase) - PstI opened pLR10T3 vector; 2) The PstI-EcoRI fragment from this intermediate construction containing the λ-PL promoter was then replaced by the corresponding PstI-EcoRI fragment from pTrp321. Hence, the λ-PL promoter was eliminated. This is an expression vector for soluble β-galactosidase in E. coli under control of the T7 promoter. The high-level expression of the protein is obtained by the system of translational coupling, exploiting the T7g10:Salmonella typhimurium trpB fusion as a short first cistron (CIS1). For T7 driven expression use a strain containing a controllable T7 RNA polymerase gene: preferably a pT7POL plasmid (Mertens et al., Biotechnology 13 (1995), 175-179) or e.g. BL21(DE3). Proceed as follows: first transform auxiliary plasmid, make competent cells again and then transform the expression plasmid. Other name of the plasmid is pTR10βgal. |
