Depositor Comments

A human pl6ink4 cDNA was obtained by PCR amplification of a HeLa cell cDNA library with a 5' primer (5'-GGAATTCACCACCATGGAGCCTTCGGCTGAC-3') and a 3' primer (5'-GGAATTCTCGAGTCAATCGGGGATATCTGAGGGACC-3'). A 472-bp fragment was amplified, purified on a low-melting agarose gel, and cloned directly into pGEM-T (Promega). The resulting plasmid was then used to isolate an EcoRI/Xho I fragment containing the pl6ink4 coding region, which was cloned into pcDNA3 (Invitrogen) to construct pCMV.pl6ink4.

The insert corresponds to isoform 1 but is missing the first 8 amino acids.
