Original Publication

A plasmid toolkit for cloning chimeric cDNAs encoding customized fusion proteins into any Gateway destination expression vector. Buj R, Iglesias N, Planas AM, Santalucia T. BMC Molecular Biology 7, 2013, August 20th; 14(1):18. PubMed

Description

This is a versatile cloning toolkit for constructing fully-customizable three-part fusion proteins, based on the MultiSite Gateway® cloning kit from Life Technologies. The fusion protein components (i.e. an ORF of interest plus two flanking modules) are encoded in the three plasmids integral to the original MultiSite Gateway® kit. These can recombine with any purposely-engineered destination vector that uses a heterologous promoter external to the MultiSite Gateway® cassette, leading to the in-frame cloning of a cDNA encoding a fusion protein. In its current form, the toolkit contains a set of 12 promoter-less Gateway® entry clones (mostly encoding fluorescent protein cDNAs: mKate2, EGFP, ECFP, EYFP, but also an epitope tags cassette and a polyA signal) that provide N-terminal and C-terminal flanking modules when used in MultiSite Gateway reactions with other entry clones encoding the ORFs of interest.
