pMC-TNFalpha
(Plasmid #20210)

• Depositing Lab: Martin Holcik
• Depositing Organization: Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Research Institute
  Located in Canada
• Publication: Zhao et al Cell Death Differ. 2009 Feb . 16(2):244-52.

Backbone

• Vector backbone: pcDNA3
• Backbone manufacturer: Invitrogen
• Backbone size w/o insert (bp): 5400
• Modifications to backbone: The expression plasmid pMC was constructed by inserting a synthetic polylinker (5′-AGC TTG CGG CCG CTA GCC TCG AGG GAT CCT CTA GAA TGC A-3′) into a pcDNA3 vector (Invitrogen) followed by insertion of the chloramphenicol acetyl transferase (CAT) coding sequence. The CAT insert was generated by PCR amplification using pCAT as a template.
• Vector type: Mammalian Expression
• Selectable markers: Neomycin (select with G418)

Growth in Bacteria

Depositor Comments

The 3′UTR was generated by PCR amplification from a liver cDNA library (Invitrogen). and the expression plasmids pMC-TNFα was constructed by inserting the 3′UTR of TNFα downstream of CAT in the pMC construct.
