Comments: See scanned map. This is the original RET-EGFP vector. The highest virus titer that can be obtained with this construct is ~4x10^4 cfu/ml: the mRNA instability signal seems to block transcription of the virus genome at least to some extent. There are two versions, N1 and N2. Version N1 contains two XbaI sites and can be used for transfection after isolation of the XbaI-XbaI fragment. However, N1 contains an additional cryptic poly A signal between EGFP and GHpA, and its orientation is the same as that of virus transcription (from right to left in the figure). This means that N1 can not be used for the virus production: a full-length virus RNA is not produced efficiently. In contrast, N2 does not have such a cryptic poly A signal and is suitable for virus production. However, N2 contains an additional XbaI site between EGFP and GHpA, making it very difficult to isolate all the essential components of the vector on a single XbaI-XbaI fragment. Because of a weak NEO promoter, the number of G418-resistant colonies obtained after transfection (N1) or infection (N2) is fewer than that generated by other RET vectors with a strong NEO promoter.

Description: Non-profit plasmid repository dedicated to helping scientists around the world share high-quality plasmids. Facilitates archiving and distributing DNA-based research reagents and associated data to scientists worldwide. Repository contains over 65,000 plasmids, including special collections on CRISPR, fluorescent proteins, and ready-to-use viral preparations. There is no cost for scientists to deposit plasmids, which saves time and money associated with shipping plasmids themselves. All plasmids are fully sequenced for validation and sequencing data is openly available. We handle the appropriate Material Transfer Agreements (MTA) with institutions, facilitating open exchange and offering intellectual property and liability protection for depositing scientists. Furthermore, we curate free educational resources for the scientific community including a blog, eBooks, video protocols, and detailed molecular biology resources.
