Depositor Comments

Nde-Xho fragment from pET15b/Vh1-258 (Addgene plasmid 46173) was subcloned into EGFP/V1-1066 (Addgene plasmid 46265) vector modified to contain unique Nde, Xho sites. Modifications were made by QuikChange PCR to facilitate cloning of cDNAs previously in the pET15b vector. The NdeI site present in the cytomegalovirus promoter region was removed (mutating adenine 234 to thymine), and
a new NdeI site was introduced into the multiple cloning site immediately before the vinculin start codon. Additionally, the 5-XhoI site was removed (mutating cytosine 1345 to adenine), and a 3-XhoI site was introduced 3' to the vinculin cDNA in lieu of a PstI site.
