pET co-transformation cloning vector (13S-A) Resource Report Resource Website 10+ mentions |
RRID:Addgene_48323 | Spectinomycin | This plasmid is an empty vector to be used with a LIC cloning protocol. It has a Spec resistance. To clone into this vector, add LICv2 fusion tags to the 5' end of your PCR primers. LICv2 Forward - 5'TTTAAGAAGGAGATATAGATC3' LICv2 Reverse - 5'TTATGGAGTTGGGATCTTATTA3' Linearize the plasmid with EcoRV and gel purify. When digesting the DNA with T4 polymerase for LIC, use dCTP for insert and dGTP for vector. The 13-series vectors were designed to enable rapid cloning for a co-expression system. Vectors are based on Novagen's Duet system. Each gene is expressed on its own vector, which has been optimized so that each gene expresses at approximately equal levels. The 13-series vectors are all compatible with 2-series transfer vectors, so if cotransformation fails, there is a readily available backup in polycistronic expression. 13S CDF origin SpecR13K ColA origin KanR2-series transfer ColE1 origin AmpR13S vectors must be cotransformed with a 2-series vector for optimal expression (that is, the presence of an empty 2A-T vector enhances expression of a gene in 13S). For triple expressions, the proteins all seem to express at approximately equal levels. Genes in the CDF vector consistently express at very slightly lower levels, so if you're trying to pull down stoichiometric complexes, it's probably best to put His6-fusion protein in this vector.

pET His6 Sumo TEV expression vector with BioBrick polypromoter restriction sites (14-S) Resource Report Resource Website 1+ mentions |
RRID:Addgene_48313 | Ampicillin | This plasmid is an empty vector to be used with a LIC cloning protocol.It has a TEV cleavable His6 Sumo tag on the N-terminus and Amp resistance. To clone into this vector, add LIC fusion tags to the 5' end of your PCR primers. Forward - 5'TACTTCCAATCCAATGCA3' Reverse - 5'TTATCCACTTCCAATGTTATTA3' Linearize the plasmid with SspI and gel purify. When digesting the DNA with T4 polymerase for LIC, use dCTP for insert and dGTP for vector. The Series-14 plasmids were designed to overcome the unpredictable expression patterns of genes from a polycistronic message. As mentioned in the Series-2 and Series-9 polycistronic sections, often genes that express well from a single gene mRNA do not express at the same level when placed in a polycistronic message next to other genes. This effect is likely due to mRNA structure interfering with access to the ribosome binding site. When we first made our polypromoter plasmids we found that we could clone multiple genes together in the Xl1-Blue cells so that each possess a T7 promoter, followed by a Lac operator, followed by a ribosome binding site, followed by your open reading frame (T7-LacO-RBS-yORF). However, these multi-gene polypromoter plasmids were unable to be transformed into an expression strain such as BL-21 or Rosetta2. We then figured out that we needed a RecAexpression strain (like Rosetta-Blues) to successfully propagate our polypromoter plasmids. Although Rosetta-Blue cells propagated our plasmids, expression was not so great and we didn't want to rely on a specialized strain to perform our expression. Finally, we figured out that it was the LacO that follows the T7 promoter that was causing plasmid instability in our polypromoter system. Removal of the LacO allowed us to express our polypromoter plasmids in Rosetta2 cells and we have had much success with these plasmids since. Much like our Series- 2 plasmids, the Series-14 plasmids are going to give a substantial amount of leaky expression. However, even with this shortcoming, we have found Series-14 to be a valuable resource for expressing multi-protein complexes. Cloning into the Series-14 plasmids and subsequent biobrick subcloning is performed exactly as described for the Series-9 plasmids.

RRID:Addgene_48304 | Ampicillin | Note: The full plasmid sequence displayed here is theoretical and may not be entirely accurate. Addgene's quality control sequencing has identified some discrepancies with the sequence, but they do not impact the plasmid's function. This plasmid is a LIC-adapted S. cerevisiae 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 tag on the N-terminus and can complement Ura auxotrophy. 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 12 vectors are galactose inducible (using the Gal 1/10 promoter). The plasmids are cloned and propagated in E. coli. Plasmids are available to complement the Ade, Trp, or Ura auxotrophies. The Ade, Trp, and Ura plasmids can co-exist in the same yeast cell with no compatibility issues.
