Resource Information

  • A portion of this plasmid was derived from a plasmid made by
    The R6K replication origin was generated via PCR from pMOD4 (Epicentre). The kanamycin resistance gene was generated via PCR from pKRP11 (The Cloning Vector collection). The unc-119 gene was subcloned from pCG150 (available from Addgene).

Depositor Comments

This plasmid has small deletions within the KanR gene. We generated these fragments by PCR so it is definitely possible that these were generated during amplification, these changes must not impair function as the construct is Kan resistant both as a plasmid and following recombination.
