(Plasmid #12093)

Ordering

This material is available to academics and nonprofits only.
Item Catalog # Description Quantity Price (USD)
Plasmid 12093 Standard format: Plasmid sent in bacteria as agar stab 1 $85

Backbone

  • Vector backbone
    pSico PGK GFP
  • Backbone size (bp) 7500
  • Modifications to backbone
    EGFP is expressed from this plasmid as a marker, but it is not a fusion protein. Cre causes EGFP to be recombined out of the construct, activating shRNA expression.
  • Vector type
    Mammalian Expression, Lentiviral, RNAi, Cre/Lox

Growth in Bacteria

  • Bacterial Resistance(s)
    Ampicillin, 100 μg/mL
  • Growth Temperature
    37°C
  • Growth Strain(s)
    DH5alpha
  • Copy number
    High Copy

Gene/Insert

  • Gene/Insert name
    None

Depositor Comments

pSico PGK GFP is similar to pSico, except the CMV promoter is replaced with the PGK promoter. pSico PGK GFP allows for conditional (Cre-Lox), stable expression of shRNAs for RNA interference in cells and transgenic mice. Addition of Cre TURNS ON shRNA expression.

The shRNA coding oligos have to be cloned into the HpaI and XhoI restriction sites. Oligo design information can be found on the author's map or on the Jacks Lab website http://web.mit.edu/jacks-lab/protocols_table.html
