Depositor Comments
Note that although the plasmid encodes a hygromycin resistance gene, it is not expressed from the plasmid. It is only expressed after Flp recombinase-mediated chromosomal integration of the plasmid.
These plasmids were created by your colleagues. Please acknowledge the Principal Investigator, cite the article in which the plasmids were described, and include Addgene in the Materials and Methods of your future publications.
