Depositor Comments

This plasmid is a LIC-adapted pFastBac vector. It uses the same PCR primer tags as with most of our other vectors, so one PCR product can be inserted into many different vectors at once.

This vector has a TEV cleavable His6-MBP tag on the N-terminus.

Add the following tags to your PCR primers:
LicV1 Forward Tag TACTTCCAATCCAATGCA(ATG)
LicV1 Reverse Tag TTATCCACTTCCAATGTTATTA

Linearize this plasmid with SspI and gel purify the product, then T4-treat with dGTP. For the PCR product, T4-treat with dCTP.

Series 11 vectors have BioBrick restriction sites to facilitate subcloning reactions to make polycistronic expression vectors. NotI, PacI, AsiSI, and SbfI are the restriction enzyme sites that flank your open reading frame. For more information, please see our website: http://qb3.berkeley.edu/qb3/macrolab/
