Description

General description

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

Application

To see more application data, protocols, vector maps visit sigma.com/shrna.
Silencing of the CMV promoter can be a problem in some cell types. For these cells, the ubiquitin promoter (UbC) can be a viable alternative. The MISSION UbC-TurboGFP Control Vector is a 9092 base pair lentivirus plasmid vector that contains a gene encoding TurboGFP, under the control of the UbC promoter. The UbC-Turbo-GFP Control Vector is useful as a positive control in experiments using the MISSION shRNA library clones for applications in which an alternate promoter is necessary.
