General description
Promoter Expression Level: PSF-CMV-PGK - DUAL PROMOTER EXPRESSION PLASMID contains the mammalian CMV promoter to drive gene expression. We have tested all of our mammalian promoters in a range of cell types and CMV is consistently the strongest in those we have studied. However there are many reports of the CMV promoter demonstrating silencing by methylation in long-term culture.
Application
Multiple Cloning Site Notes: There is a start codon in the NcoI site that can be removed by digestion with KpnI if required. The MCS for gene insertions extends from NotI to XbaI but the Shine-Dalgarno sequences and KOZAK ribosomal entry site sequences are aligned with the start codon in the NcoI site. The PGK promoter has been inserted between the ClaI and BamHI sites and contains sites downstream to allow a second gene to be inserted.
The BsgI and BseRI restriction sites in the first MCS cleave within the stop codon in the XbaI site and allow the retrospective fusion of coding sequences.
