Depositor Comments

ZKSCAN1 intron 1 (partial) & ZKSCAN1 intron 3 (partial) separated by a pair of BsmBI restriction sites. 5' Cloning Site: EcoRI (not destroyed), 3' Cloning Site: XhoI (not destroyed). The mc2 and pF mc2 series of plasmids were designed and created by Dr Brett Stringer in the laboratory of Prof Simon Conn. They are based on the original circRNA mini vector design of Liang & Wilusz, 2014. The pair of BsmBI restriction sites is the cloning site for DNA specifying the RNA sequence to be circularised. For cloning cDNA, the 5' restriction site should be either NheI, BmtI, AflII, HindIII, Acc65I, KpnI, BamHI or EcoRI and the 3' restriction site should be either XhoI, PspXI, XbaI, EcoO109I, PspOMI or ApaI. The neoR gene of Addgene plasmid ID 60648 also was replaced with the mNeon gene from Addgene plasmid ID 155258. Please visit https://doi.org/10.1101/2023.11.21.568171 for bioRxiv preprint.
