Depositor Comments

Alternate plasmid names: pD40-His-c-Myc; pcDNA-DEST40 Myc wt

This His6-tagged c-Myc plasmid was created by PCR amplification of the coding sequence for wild-type murine c-Myc2 from the CMVMyc plasmid (Hann et al., Genes Dev. 1994, PMID: 7958908) with a CACC 5′ extension added to the 5′ primer for cloning into the TOPO entry clone from Invitrogen (Carlsbad, CA). This sequence was then moved into the pDEST-40 mammalian expression vector using Gateway technology (Invitrogen), creating pD40-His-c-Myc.
