Notes
Information retrieved from reference: McClinton et al, Mol Cell Biol 10, p 705-710. Plasmid contains (i) the mouse metallothionein 1 promoter, (ii) a genomic segment including the 3' end of exon 2, intron 2, exon 3, and 3'-flanking sequences of the human b-globin gene, and (iii) an SV40-Neo selectable marker was obtained from Jeffery Holt (Vanderbilt University). This plasmid was constructed by cloning the EcoRI-BglII promoter region into pUC-9 and then isolating this sequence as an EcoRI-HindIII fragment, which was used to replace the EcoRI-HindIII mouse mammory tumor virus sequence in the pHfos vector.
