Resource Information

A portion of this plasmid was derived from a plasmid made byBCL-2 sequence aligns with Gene Bank #ABX60202.1, except there is a naturally occurring M157I alteration in the coding sequence of Bcl-2. The mutation was in the original clone and has been used to inhibit apoptosis by our group and many others around the world since that time. It has always been our assumption that this mutation is a naturally occurring variant. Our clone has been used in many publications as the plasmid was widely distributed when it was first assembled and published. Janiak F, Leber B, Andrews DW.

Depositor Comments
Transfection of this plasmid will express Venus-fused to the N-terminus of Bcl-2. There is a flexible, 6 aa linker between "SGLRST", between Venus and Bcl-2. This Venus protein contains an A206K mutation to make it monomeric.
