General description

The MISSION® TurboGFP Control Vector is an 8347 base pair lentivirus plasmid vector that contains a gene encoding TurboGFP, under the control of the CMV promoter. The TurboGFP Control Vector is useful as a positive transfection/transduction control in experiments using the MISSION® shRNA library clones. TurboGFP is an improved variant of the green fluorescent protein copGFP cloned from copepoda Pontellina plumata.

Ampicillin and puromycin antibiotic resistance genes provide selection in bacterial or mammalian cells respectively. In addition, self-inactivating replication incompetent viral particles can be produced in packaging cells (HEK293T) by co-transfection with compatible packaging plasmids. The TurboGFP Control Vector is provided as 10 μg of plasmid DNA in Tris-EDTA (TE) buffer at a concentration of 500 ng/μl.

Application

MISSION® pLKO.1-puro-CMV-TurboGFP Positive Control Plasmid DNA has been used to construct GATA2 overexpression vector (oeG2), by removing the GFP cassette of this vector at the 5′ NheI and 3′ PstI cloning sites and replacing it with the full-length GATA2 transcript sequence.

  1. Which document(s) contains shelf-life or expiration date information for a given product?

    If available for a given product, the recommended re-test date or the expiration date can be found on the Certificate of Analysis.

  2. How do I get lot-specific information or a Certificate of Analysis?

    The lot specific COA document can be found by entering the lot number above under the "Documents" section.

  3. What competent cells can I use to propagate the MISSION® Control Vector Purified DNA TurboGFP plasmid, Product SHC003?

    We use GC5 cells (identical genotype to DH5α-T1R) to propagate the Mission shRNA plasmids and controls.

  4. How much plasmid DNA do I receive when I order MISSION® Control Vector Purified DNA TurboGFP, Product SHC003?

    Each MISSION Control Vector is provided as 10 μg purified plasmid DNA at a concentration of ~500 ng/μL in 10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0, containing 1 mM EDTA.

  5. Can I use MISSION® Control Vector Purified DNA TurboGFP plasmid, Product SHC003, to produce lentiviral particles?

    The MISSION® Lentiviral Packaging Mix can be used if you wish to produce virus in your own lab. The product code is SHP001. This product is an optimized formulation of two plasmids expressing the key HIV packaging genes and a heterologous viral envelope gene. The Lentiviral Packaging Mix is designed to be co-transfected along with a compatible lentiviral transfer vector (such as SHC003) into HEK293T cells in order to create high-titer pseudo-typed lentiviral particles used for downstream transduction applications. The procedure is available in the Technical Bulletin for product SHP001.

  6. Can I purchase lentiviral particles produced using MISSION® Control Vector Purified DNA TurboGFP plasmid, Product SHC003, directly from Sigma-Aldrich?

     Yes. The product code is SHC003V.

  7. What other MISSION® shRNA controls are available from Sigma-Aldrich?

    A complete list of our MISSION® controls can be found here.

When shRNA is delivered using lentiviral vectors, the sequence encoding the shRNA is integrated into the genome and the knockdown effect is passed on to daughter cells, continuing gene silencing.
