Backbone

  • Vector backbone
    pBabe N-terminal RFP hygro
  • Backbone size w/o insert (bp) 6265
  • Modifications to backbone
    This construct is a variant of pBabe hygro that expresses mRFP1 as an N-terminal fusion. A new XhoI site was inserted immediately upstream of the BamHI site by PCR during cloning. TO EXPRESS AN N-mRFP1 FUSION, GENES MUST HAVE A BAMHI- OR XHO1-COMPATIBLE 5' STICKY END.

Depositor Comments

pBabe RFP1_KRT5 hygro was constructed by PCR cloning from plasmid templates (Open Biosystems) into the retroviral vector pBabe N-terminal RFP hygro. The PCR product was gel purified, digested with BamHI and EcoRI, and then ligated into pBabe N-terminal RFP hygro, which had been digested with BamHI and EcoRI and then dephosphorylated.
