Depositor Comments

The deposited sequence file of pWS-TK2 is from compilation of previous plasmids, and only part of it has been re-sequenced. There is a gap between author's sequence and Addgene sequence that will NOT affect the use of this plasmid.

Please also note that Addgene's quality control sequencing indicates that the PacI and SgfI sites present in the depositor's map are not present in the plasmid's actual sequence.

pWS-TK2 is designed to have two variants of thymidine kinase gene from herpes virus.
