Depositor Comments
Note-When cloning into this plasmid, the 5' end of the insert must provide an extra nucleotide to maintain the reading frame. Additionally, a stop codon must be inserted 5' to the BamHI site. Please see supplemental document for more details.
This plasmid is used in conjuction with the other Ann Hochschild Bacterial 2-hybrid system plasmids (Addgene plasmids 53730, 53731, 53732, 53733, and 53734) and must be used in the reporter strain, FW102 OL2–62 (Addgene item 53735). Please see the associated article for links to all of these plasmids:
http://www.addgene.org/browse/article/8393/
