Backbone

  • Vector backbone
    pECFP-N3
  • Backbone manufacturer
    Craig lab
  • Modifications to backbone
    pECFP-N3 vector was constructed as an intermediate vector for generating tail probe. ECFP was PCR amplified with 5 -GGTACCatggtgagcaagggc-3 and 5 -GCGGCCGCTttacttgtacagctc-3 to generate 5' KpnI and 3 ' NotI. The product was subcloned into TOPO pCRII and sequenced. The KpnI and NotI fragment of pCRII/ECFP was used to replace the EGFP fragment of pEGFP-N3 to generate pECFP-N3.

Depositor Comments

A 9-bp fragment encoding a NotI site was introduced by mutagenesis into pEGFP-C1/vinculin cDNA (chicken) immediately after the codon for aa 883 (Coutu and Craig, 1988) using
the Quick Change kit (Stratagene). The cDNA of EYFP (CLONTECH Laboratories, Inc.) minus the stop codon and flanked by NotI was inserted into NotI-digested vinculin.
