Backbone

  • Vector backbone
    L4440
  • Backbone manufacturer
    L4440 is available at Addgene
  • Backbone size w/o insert (bp) 2790
  • Vector type
    Worm Expression, RNAi

Growth in Bacteria

Depositor Comments

Gateway-modified RNAi feeding vector L4440. Use this vector for Gateway cloning of an RNAi target sequence. A Gateway recombinational cassette was placed into the EcoRV site of vector L4440 to generate this modified plasmid. To facilitate subcloning of a given DNA insert into this plasmid, Gateway recombinational attachment sites should be incorporated into primers used for amplificiation, as outlined in the Invitrogen Gateway manual.
