Depositor Comments

Please note that the plasmid pSKB3.MPN348 contains a Kanamycin resistance marker, and the BL21 bacterial strain contains a plasmid, pSJS1244, that confers spectinomycin resistance and allows for expression of genes with rare codons.

Addgene provides this plasmid in the DH5alpha bacterial strain. For expression, please use BL21(DE3).Star/pSJS1244
