� mRNA-ONLY™ Prokaryotic mRNA Isolation KitmRNA-ONLY™ Eukaryotic mRNA Isolation Kit

For isolation of rRNA-free prokaryotic/eukaryotic mRNA

The mRNA-ONLY™ Prokaryotic mRNA Isolation Kit provides a novel, simpleand effective method for obtaining mRNA transcripts that aresubstantially free of ribosomal RNA (rRNA) in about an hour. Althougholigo(dT)- or oligo(dU)- immobilized polymers or other substrates arecommonly used to purify polyadenylated eukaryotic mRNA, this has notbeen possible for prokaryotic mRNA since most prokaryotic mRNA is notpolyadenylated. The mRNA-ONLY protocol begins with a purifiedpreparation of total RNA from a prokaryote, such as that obtained usingthe MasterPure™ RNA Purification Kit. The first step of an mRNA-ONLYprotocol is treatment of total RNA with a proprietary mRNA-ONLY™ IsolationSolution, which removes 16S and 23S prokaryotic rRNA in the preparation,leaving a solution that is highly enriched for mRNA. In some protocols,mRNA is then salt-precipitated using the LiCl Solution provided in thekit.

Whatever the template, whatever its sequence, the FailSafe™ PCR Sys-tem is almost always your best choice for dependable amplification ofany template up to 20 kb every time. If the template is larger than 20 kb,use the MasterAmp™ Extra-Long PCR Kit. For real-time quantitative PCR

applications, use the FailSafe™ Real-Time PCR System.

b PCR products synthesized using the FailSafe PCR System can becloned with good cloning efficiencies using both blunt-end vectorsand vectors with a 5’-terminal T overhang.

c Mn2+-dependent.

d Note, Taq and Tfl DNA polymerases have been reported to catalyzeMn2+-dependent reverse transcription. However, the level of RTactivity is significantly less than that of RetroAmp™ RT and Tth

DNA Polymerases; therefore we do not recommend Taq or Tfl DNAPolymerase for reverse transcription.

The FailSafe™ PCR System, the MasterAmp™ Extra-Long PCR Kit, and theFailSafe™ Real-Time PCR System require no additional optimizationcomponents. For other thermostable DNA polymerases, EPICENTRE offerstwo different PCR optimization kits. The proper optimization kit shouldbe chosen based upon the polymerase used.

Applications

• Conversion of both 5'- and 3'-protruding DNA termini to blunt

ends.

• Cloning of PCR fragments. Treatment of PCR products

containing 3'-A overhangs with T4 DNA Polymerase and dNTPsproduces blunt ends, which greatly increases cloningefficiencies.

• Production of site-specific mutations. Because T4 DNA

Polymerase does not displace oligonucleotides that arehybridized to DNA, it can be used for site-specific mutagenesisby primer extension of “mutated” oligonucleotides hybridizedto single-stranded DNA templates.

• Labeling of 3'-termini of DNA molecules and synthesis of strand-

specific probes using the exonuclease and polymerase activitiesof T4 DNA Polymerase.

� T7 DNA Polymerase, Unmodified

T7 DNA Polymerase has both a template-directed 5'→3' DNA polymeraseactivity and a potent 3'→5' exonuclease activity. The enzyme is a tightly-bound complex of T7 phage-encoded gene 5 protein and E.coli host-encoded thioredoxin. T7 DNA Polymerase is highly processive; itsynthesizes long stretches of DNA before dissociating from the template.The rate of elongation is also much faster than that of most other DNApolymerases.

The unmodified form of T7 DNA Polymerase should not be confused withT7 DNA polymerase preparations from which exonuclease activity hasbeen removed by genetic engineering or by oxidation during purification.

Applications

• Primer extension of long DNA molecules.

• Conversion of 5'- and 3'-protruding ends to blunt ends.

• Labeling of 3'-ends of DNA. In situ detection of DNA fragmen-tation associated with apoptosis.

� Other Polymerases for PCR

Hot Start Pol is recommended for high specificity PCR reactions andshows superior amplification at lowest template concentrations. Thethermal activation prevents the extension of nonspecifically annealedprimers and primer-dimers formed at low temperatures during PCRsetup. The polymerase contains monoclonal antibodies, which blockpolymerase activity prior to the onset of thermal cycling. It catalyzesthe polymerization of nucleotides into duplex DNA in 5'→3' direction inthe presence of magnesium. It also possesses a 5'→3' polymerization-dependent exonuclease replacement activity but lacks a 3'→5' exonucleaseactivity.

High Fidelity Pol is a blend of DNA polymerases specially designed forhighly accurate and efficient amplification of fragments up to 5 kbpincluding GC-rich or other difficult templates. The enzyme blend includesa highly processive 5'→3' DNA polymerase and shows no detectable 5'→3'exonuclease activity. Its inherent 3'?5' exonuclease proofreading activityresults in a greatly increased fidelity of DNA synthesis compared to Taq.

Long Range Pol is a blend of DNA polymerases specially designed forhighly accurate and efficient amplification of fragments up to 30 kbp.The enzyme blend includes a highly processive 5'→3' DNA polymerase andshows no detectable 5'→3' exonuclease activity. Its inherent 3'→5' exonu-clease proofreading activity results in a greatly increased length of am-plification product compared to Taq.

Sequencing Pol is a Taq polymerase mutant showing an enhanced effi-ciency for incorporation of ddNTPs. Its capability of incorporating ddNTPsand dNTPs at equal rates makes it the ideal choice for DNA cycle sequenc-ing. The enzyme replicates DNA at 74°C. It catalyzes the polymerizationof nucleotides into duplex DNA in 5'→3' direction in the presence ofmagnesium and has a 5'→3' polymerisation-dependent exonuclease re-placement activity only.

� MasterAmp™ 10X PCR Enhancer

EPICENTRE’s patented MasterAmp™ 10X PCR Enhancer (with betaine)substantially improves PCR performance and allows improved sensitivityand specificity for amplification of many DNA templates. UsingMasterAmp PCR Enhancer in PCR eliminates the base-pair compositiondependence of DNA melting, increases enzyme’s thermal stability, sup-presses pauses of DNA polymerase, and reduces secondary DNA struc-ture. As a result, long DNA templates; difficult DNA templates (e.g.,those with a high GC content), and those with other complex structurescan be amplified at higher denaturing temperatures, significantly re-ducing the effect of secondary structure without loss of enzyme activity.

� Sterile Nuclease-Free Water

Sterile Nuclease-Free Water is useful for many molecular biology applica-tions. Our water is free of DNA exonuclease and endonuclease activities,and RNase activity.

� Enzyme Storage Buffer

Enzyme Storage Buffer, for dilution of enzymes supplied in this buffer,is liquid at -20°C, but is frozen at -80°C. Most highly-purified enzymesare stable under either of these conditions, but should not be stored atintermediate temperatures between about -30°C to -40°C because thestorage buffer can freeze and thaw, potentially inactivating the enzyme.Some enzymes require storage buffers with cofactors or other compo-nents. Confirm that Enzyme Storage Buffer is suitable for the enzyme.Some enzymes are less stable at very dilute concentrations or you maysee losses in activity due to binding of the enzyme to the walls of thetube.

� MonsterScript™ 1st-Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit

The MonsterScript™ 1st-Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit is optimized for gen-erating full-length first-strand cDNA from multiple mRNA species in samplescontaining total cellular or purified polyadenylated RNA. The cDNA gen-erated is useful for a variety of subsequent applications, including use asa template for PCR, real-time PCR, or other amplification methods.

MonsterScript 1st-Strand cDNA Synthesis Kit uses MonsterScript™ Re-verse Transcriptase, a novel proprietary reverse transcriptase thatlacks RNase H activity. The enzyme’s lack of RNase H activity contributesto its ability to make longer cDNAs and more complete libraries of first-strand cDNA molecules.

Benefits• MonsterScript™ Reverse Transcriptase lacks RNase H, enabling

improved synthesis of full-length cDNA even for long mRNA.• MonsterScript is thermostable, permitting reverse transcrip-

tion at temperatures >50°C, which reduces RNA secondarystructure and improves priming specificity.

• MonsterScript™ RT PreMix contains optimized concentrationsof dNTPS, Mg+2 and Betaine for superior performance andminimal pipetting steps.

• Betaine in the cDNA Synthesis PreMix reduces pausing andstops during reverse transcription.

• The kit includes both an oligo(dT)-containing and a randomnonamer primer.

• First-strand cDNA can be made from picogram amounts oftotal RNA.

• The cDNA is a good template for subsequent end-point PCR orreal-time PCR.

• A potent RNase Inhibitor is included.

� MonsterScript™ Reverse Transcriptase

EPICENTRE’s MonsterScript™ Reverse Transcriptase is a magnesium-de-pendent thermostable reverse transcriptase that completely lacks RNaseH activity. The enzyme is highly efficient at producing full-length cDNAfrom RNA templates up to or greater than 15 kb.

Benefits• Thermostable reverse transcriptase. Full activity up to 65°C

enables reverse transcription through regions of high GCcontent or difficult secondary structure, and increasedspecificity when using gene-specific primers.

• Completely lacks RNase H activity (RNase H-Minus) for full-length cDNA synthesis from RNA up to or greater than 15 kb.

• Greater sensitivity in RT-PCR. MonsterScript ReverseTranscriptase very efficiently produces cDNA from picogramquantities of total RNA. In addition, the MonsterScript ReactionBuffer is compatible with PCR reactions so more of the RTreaction can be used in the PCR reaction.

� MasterAmp™ RT-PCR Kit for High Sensitivity

The MasterAmp™ RT-PCR Kit for High Sensitivity is a single-enzyme,single-tube RT-PCR system. It is capable of amplifying RNA from a singlegene in as little as 1 pg of total cellular placental RNA (e.g., humanchorionic gonadotropin). It is ideal for amplifying low-copy-number RNAtranscripts.

The MasterAmp RT-PCR Kit for High Sensitivity uses RetroAmp™ RT DNAPolymerase, which is both thermostable and has reverse transcriptionactivity. This kit is able to synthesize cDNA at higher temperatures(60ºC). The higher temperature RT can significantly reduce RNA second-ary structure, thus increasing both specificity and sensitivity of RTreactions. The high sensitivity of this kit is further augmented by com-bining both RT and PCR into one single step in which all cDNA synthesizedduring RT is used as template for PCR amplification.

One-Tube One-Step One-Enzyme RT-PCR for Gene Specific PrimersPerform first-strand cDNA synthesis and PCR uninterrupted, in one tubeusing specific primers.

One-Tube Two-Step RT-PCR for Non-Specific PrimersPerform first-strand cDNA synthesis using random oligo dT primers. Inthe subsequent PCR reaction, use cDNA generated and specificprimers.

Benefits

• High sensitivity RT-PCR from as little as 1 pg of total cellularRNA.

• Out-performs similar products from other vendors.• Reduces effect of RNA secondary structure by performing RT

reactions at higher temperature.• Reduces chance for cross contamination by using one enzyme

in a one-step and one-tube reaction protocol with no sampletransfer.

• MasterAmp PCR Enhancer Technology enhances PCR perfor-mance with GC-rich and other difficult templates.

� HIV Reverse Transcriptase (Jena Bioscience)

HIV-1 Reverse Transcriptase (RT) is a heterodimer consisting of phage-encoded p66 and p51 subunits. HIV-1 RT is used by the Human Immunode-ficiency Virus-1 to transcribe its RNA genome into single-stranded DNA.HIV-1 RT can be used for incorporation of nucleotide analogs into DNA byRTPCR or as a standard for assaying HIV-1 RT activity in human serum.

Although the p66 subunit is responsible for most of the polymerase activ-ity as well as RNase H activity, the 1:1 complex with p51 subunit showsincreased processivity and activity. The p66 subunit is responsible forpolymerase activity as well as RNase H activity and shows this activityalso in the absence of the p51 subunit. In the absence of p51, the p66subunit forms homodimers.

HIV-2 reverse transcriptase (RT) is used by the Human Immunodefi-ciency Virus-1 to transcribe its RNA genome into single-stranded DNA.HIV-2 RT can be used for incorporation of nucleotide analogs into DNA byRT-PCR or as a standard for assaying HIV-2 RT activity in human serum.In contrast to HIV-1 RT, HIV-2 RT is not inhibited by nonnucleoside RTinhibitors (NNRTI´s).

� CopyControl™ cDNA, Gene & PCR Cloning Kits

Up to ~25% more cDNA clones can be obtained in a library if the cDNAclones are present in the host cell at only about one copy per cell (per-sonal communication from P. Carninci and W. Szybalski labs), presum-ably due to reduced detrimental effects on host cell metabolism andlower toxicity of expressed clone sequences and gene products.CopyControl™ cDNA, Gene & PCR Cloning Kits provide a rapid and im-proved method (Figure 1) for cloning any blunt-end DNA fragments, suchas blunt-end genes, PCR products, or cDNAs, at single-copy, with thecapability to induce to high-copies at will. The CopyControl™ pCC1™(Blunt) Vector provided in the kits contains both the E. coli F-factorsingle-copy origin of replication (ori) and an inducible high-copy oriV.Replication does not occur using the oriV unless and until the trfA gene inthe chromosome of TransforMax™ EPI300™ cells, which is under the con-trol of a tightly-regulated promoter, is induced. Thus, CopyControl cDNA,PCR, or gene clones can be grown at single copy to ensure insert stabilityand successful cloning of sequences that are toxic to the host cell. Then,any desired clone can be induced at will to up to 200 copies per cell forhigh yields of DNA for all downstream applications.

Figure 1. Efficient, blunt-end cloning of any cDNA, PCR productor other dsDNA fragment up to 15 kb and screening of clones canbe completed in 24 hours using the CopyControl™ cDNA, Gene &PCR Cloning Kit.

Clones can be kept at one copy per cell for clone stability and then,

whenever desired, any clone can be induced to high-copy-number

(up to 200 copies per cell) for high yields of DNA.

Table 1. PCR Product Cloning Results

Benefits• Get more cDNA or PCR clones and more complete clone

libraries up to 15 kb, including those that may beunstable or encode proteins that are toxic to the E. coli hostcells (Table 1).

• Clones having mutations in genes that are toxic to the hostcell are selectively favored at high-copy.

• Keep clones or a clone library at one copy per cell for insertstability. Then, induce up to 200 copies per cell at will

� PlasmidMAX™ DNA Isolation Kit

PlasmidMAX™ DNA Isolation Kit is designed to purify plasmids free fromRNA and genomic DNA. The resulting DNA is high quality, permittingaverage sequence reads of greater than 600 bases for plasmid templatesbetween 3 and 40 kb. This simple procedure requires only two 1.5-mltubes, thus avoiding excess plastic waste. The purification method isscalable to larger volumes, so separate kits are not needed for varyingsample sizes.

� Plasmid-Safe™ ATP-Dependent DNase

Plasmid-Safe™ ATP-Dependent DNase selectively removes contaminatingbacterial chromosomal DNA from plasmid, cosmid, fosmid, and BAC clonesor vector preparations. Such preparations are frequently contaminatedwith fragments of bacterial genomic DNA generated during alkaline lysis.Other purification options, such as spin-columns or even CsCl centrifu-gation, do not effectively remove these contaminants and require fur-ther purification steps. Contaminating DNA fragments left behind bythese methods ultimately can become ligated into your cloning vector,resulting in false positives and high backgrounds, or erroneous sequencedata.

Plasmid-Safe ATP-Dependent DNase digests linear double-stranded DNAto deoxynucleotides at slightly alkaline pH and, with lower efficiency,closed-circular and linear single-stranded DNA. The enzyme has no activ-ity on nicked or closed-circular double-stranded DNA or supercoiledDNA.

� DNA Fragment 2X Precipitation Solution

The DNA Fragment 2X Precipitation Solution enables rapid purificationof double-stranded DNA fragments = 200 bp, including, for example, PCRreaction products, DNA fragments obtained in restriction enzyme di-gests, or double-stranded cDNA. If the precipitated DNA fragments are5’-phosphorylated and have ends that are compatible with the vector,they can be used for cloning without further purification

� Transformation and Storage Solution (TSS)

Transformation and Storage Solution (TSS), developed at the U.S. Na-tional Institutes of Health, enables researchers to prepare competent E.

coli in a single step and to transform the cells without heat-shock. TSShas been reported to be faster and easier than other methods of pro-ducing competent cells, such as the traditional CaCl

2 method described

by Sambrook et al. or other high competency protocols. Transformationefficiencies depend on the strain of E. coli, as well as the nature andquality of the transforming DNA. Transformation efficiencies of 106-108

transformants/µg DNA are typical. For example, the transformation ef-ficiencies observed for E. coli strains DH1, DH5a, HB101, JM109, LE392,MM294, SCS-1, and XL1-Blue ranged from 1.5 x 107 to 1.0 x 108 per µg ofDNA.

• Single-step preparation of competent cells.

• Store prepared cells at –70°C with little or no loss in

transformation efficiency.

• Transform cells without heat-shock.

• Transformation efficiencies of 106-108 transformants/µg DNA

are typically obtained

� TypeOne™ Restriction Inhibitor

DNA transformation can be difficult to achieve in many bacterial strainsdue to the presence of one or more restriction and modification (R-M)systems that cleave unmodified DNA that is recognized as “foreign”.TypeOne™ Restriction Inhibitor provides a powerful method for increas-ing transformation efficiencies in bacterial strains with type I R-M sys-tems. Developed as a unique preparation of a phage protein called“ocr”,TypeOne Inhibitor is readily electroporated into cells along withtransforming DNA. In vivo the protein acts as a molecular decoy thatblocks the DNA binding site of type I R-M enzymes and inhibits DNAcleavage.

� CopyControl™ Fosmid Library Production KitCopyControl™ HTP Fosmid Library Production Kit

The CopyControl™ Fosmid Library Production Kits provide an efficientand improved method for constructing a library of cosmid-sized (ap-proximately 40 kb) clones. The CopyControl Fosmid Library ProductionKit contains the original pCC1FOS™ Vector, while the recently introducedCopyControl HTP Fosmid Library Production Kit includes a modifiedpCC1FOS Vector, called pCC2FOS (Figure 1). Both of these CopyControlVectors contain both the E. coli F-factor single-copy origin of replica-tion and the inducible high-copy oriV. CopyControl Fosmid clones aregrown at single copy to ensure insert stability and successful cloning ofencoded and expressed toxic protein. The CopyControl Fosmid clonescan then be induced up to 50 copies per cell.

The pCC2FOS Vector contains a primer cassette that optimizes end-sequencing results, especially in a high-throughput setting. This primercassette, engineered in conjunction with Agencourt Bioscience Corpora-tion, eliminates wasteful vector-derived sequencing reads by having the3' terminus of the forward and reverse primers anneal 3 nucleotidesfrom the cloning site. In addition, the 7-base sequence at the 3'-end ofeach primer was specifically designed to minimize mispriming to anycontaminating E. coli DNA present after template purification (Figure2).

TransforMax™ EPI300™ E. coli, required for induction of the CopyControlFosmid clones up to 50 copies per cell, are included with the CopyControlFosmid Library Production Kits.

Cosmids & Phage extracts

� pWEB-TNC™ Cosmid Cloning KitpWEB™ Cosmid Cloning Kit

The pWEB::TNC™ and the pWEB™ Cosmid Cloning Kits facilitate rapidand efficient construction of unbiased cosmid libraries. The kits utilizea novel strategy of cloning end-repaired, randomly sheared DNA insteadof the conventional approach of cloning fragments generated by partialrestriction endonuclease digestion. First, genomic DNA is sheared bypassing it through a syringe needle (not supplied with either kit). Thesheared DNA is end-repaired to generate blunt ends and size-selectedusing a low melting point agarose gel. The size-selected DNA is thenligated into the supplied linearized and dephosphorylated pWEB::TNC orpWEB Cosmid Vector, packaged using ultra-high efficiency MaxPlax™Lambda Packaging Extracts (>109 pfu/µg for phage lambda), also in-cluded in the kit, and plated on the supplied EPI100™ E. coli plating cells.The result is a complete and unbiased primary cosmid library.

� pWEB::TNC™ Cosmid Cloning Kit

The pWEB::TNC Cosmid Cloning Kit contains the pWEB::TNC CosmidVector. This vector can be used in all the same ways as the original pWEBvector, but offers additional features that can be used if and whendesired. For example, any of the cosmid clones produced in thepWEB::TNC vector can be used for subsequent generation of a randomunidirectional deletion library from any chosen cosmid clone when usedin the conjunction with the pWEB::TNC Deletion Cosmid TranspositionKit.

� pWEB::TNC™ Deletion Cosmid Transposition Kit

The pWEB::TNC™ Cosmid Cloning Kit and pWEB::TNC™ Deletion CosmidTransposition Kit are used in concert to produce a complete randomdeletion library from any primary cosmid clone.

A complete and unbiased primary cosmid library can be constructedeasily and reproducibly in about two days using the pWEB::TNC CosmidCloning Kit. Once the primary cosmid library is produced, the pWEB::TNCDeletion Cosmid Transposition Kit can be used to generate and producea set of random unidirectional deletion clones. The deletion library isproduced simply by incubating any chosen primary cosmid clone withEZ::TN™ Transposase for 2 hours to overnight at 37°C and then trans-forming competent E. coli.

*1 Kit is sufficient for producing up to 10 complete and unbiasedcosmid libraries.

Competent Cells for PCR & Genomic CloningCLONING

Competent Cells

Endonucelease A is a DNase that can survive boiling lysis and can degrade plasmid DNA, reducing theDNA yield from plasmid purifications.

A deletion in the lacZ gene, which codes for part of the amino-terminal of the β-galactosidaseenzyme. A plasmid containing sequences of the amino terminus can complement this deletion to givefunctional β-galactosidase. When X-gal is used as the substrate, β-galactosidase produces a blueproduct; the colonies of these cells appear blue. When the complimentary sequence on the vector isdisrupted by inserting a cloned fragment of DNA, the enzyme is no longer functional and cannotproduce a blue product; the colonies of these cells are white. On a plate of mixed blue and whitecolonies, the white colonies should contain the cloned DNA.

The recA gene codes for a DNA-dependent ATPase that is essential for genetic recombination in E.

coli. Bacterial strains deficient in recA are defective in recombination. Plasmids in these strains aremaintained as monomers (do not form multimeric circles) and are less likely to incur deletions.

Restriction systems are designed to protect bacterial cells from foreign DNA. Deleting the host cells’restriction system allows efficient cloning of DNA with different methylation patterns, such as DNAfound in mammals, higher plants, and many prokaryotes

� CopyCutter™ EPI400™ Electrocompetent E. coliCopyCutter™ EPI400™ Chemically Competent E. coli

CopyCutter™ EPI400™ E.coli* cells were developed to significantly lowerthe copy number of a wide variety of common vectors so that you canmore readily clone unstable DNA sequences. DNA that is unstable at high-copy number often codes for a protein that inhibits cell growth or con-tains AT- and GC-rich sequences or sequences with strong secondarystructure. The CopyCutter EPI400 cell line was derived from our high-transformation efficiency phage T1-resistant TransforMAX™ EC100™ E.coli

strain by manipulating a gene that controls the copy number of vectorscontaining ColE1 or pMB1 origins of replication (e.g., pUC- and pET-typevectors). This constitutively expressed gene, pcnB (plasmid copy num-ber), was deleted from the TransforMAX EC100 strain and replaced witha modified pcnB gene that is linked to an inducible promoter, creatingthe CopyCutter EPI400 strain.

The copy number of ColE1-type vectors in the CopyCutter EPI400 straincompared to the parental TransforMAX EC100 strain is approximately 4-to 25-fold lower, depending on the vector. Moreover, following a shortincubation in the presence of the CopyCutter™ Induction Solution, youcan increase the copy number of the vector to improve plasmid yields.

Mammalian cDNA Libraries and ClonescDNA LIBRARIES AND CLONES

Ready Clones

We offer an extensive library of mammalian cDNA clones, includingcomplete full-length cDNAs, partial full-length cDNAs, ESTs, and ORF-onlyclones.

� Mammalian Gene Collection (MGC)the gold standard collection of full-length cDNAsfor human, mous, and rat

Every MGC clone is fully sequenced and verified to contain a completeopen reading frame (ORF). Full-length cDNAs provide the strongest evi-dence for the structure of protein-encoding mRNA transcripts and areindispensable tools for determining gene function. MGC is the largestsingle collection of confirmed full-length and annotated cDNAs. The MGCis generated by a consortium of leading, NIH-funded laboratories and isavailable to all without restriction.

� Assay-Ready MGC cDNADiscover novel gene functions with genome-scaleoverexpression screening

Assay-Ready MGC cDNA draws on the gold standard Mammalian GeneCollection (MGC) to provide you with over 16,000 verified full-lengthhuman and mouse cDNAs cloned into the mammalian expression vectorpCMV-SPORT6. DNA is spotted in 384-well microplates provided in dupli-cate, allowing you to begin screening without first performing thousandsof plasmid preps. Easy protocols for cDNA overexpression assays areprovided as well as additional cDNA plates for assay optimization.

� BioTrack Human Gene Subsets

These subsets focus on well-known human gene families as well as impor-tant cellular pathways and processes. Each subset includes 3 parallelcomponents: full-length cDNA clones (from the Mammalian Gene Collec-tion and the Incyte Gene Collection), Human ORF clones, and ExpressionArrest™ shRNA clones that enable the use of alternative or complemen-tary strategies for determining gene function. For example,overexpression with full-length cDNA clones can be used to confirm thespecificity of RNAi knockdown in a screen with Expression Arrest shRNA.

Developed by Marc Vidal and coworkers, the BioTrack Human ORF clonescontain ORF-only sequences (full-length clones with UTRs removed) de-rived from the MGC and cloned into a recombinational entry vector.These clones can be used in a wide range of applications including yeasttwo-hybrid screens, protein imaging in live cells, cellular and in vitro

assays, and protein overexpression.and purification.

� Human ORF Collection

The Center for Cancer Systems Biology of the Dana-Farber Institute hascreated a path-breaking collection of ORF-only clones (full-lengthcDNAs with UTRs removed) beginning with over 8000 genes1 and withfuture updates planned. These clones are derived from fully sequencedMammalian Gene Collection (MGC) full-length cDNAs and cloned into arecombinational entry vector.

• ORF clones provide a shortcut to protein expression, allowing

you to skip PCR, cloning into an expression vector, and verify-

ing the ends of the ORF DNA sequence.

• Each CDS was amplified for only 25 cycles with gene-specific

primers and KOD HiFi Polymerase, greatly minimizing the risk

of PCR-induced mutations.

• The Gateway® entry vectors ensure easy transfer into prokary-

otic, mammalian, viral, or insect expression systems. For

maximum flexibility, the ORF stop codon has been removed.

� Human Freedom ORFs

Freedom™ ORF clones are collections of high quality sequence verifiedgenes cloned into vectors that are free from the IP constraintscommonly found with other recombinational cloning systems. Eachclone has been amplified and sequenced to ensure the highest quality

standard.

� BD Creator™ Universal Clones

Open Biosystems offers a set of over 1,100 human ORF clones, the BDCreator™ Universal Clones, which represents the initial release of theFreedom™ ORF collection. The BD Creator™ system is a flexible recombi-national cloning system based on Cre-loxP reactions. These ORF clonesare provided to you in the pDNR-Dual vector, allowing you to move theinserts directly into any expression vector of choice through a simpleCre recombinase reaction. Although Freedom™ ORF clones can besubcloned into any expression vector using traditional restriction en-zyme and ligase cloning methods, the Creator™ System allows the targetgene to be rapidly transferred in-frame to a variety of expression vec-tors. The BD Creator™ Universal Clones are constructed for immediate 3'tagging with a 6xHN affinity tag.

The BD Creator™ System transfers a gene from a specialized Donorvector into any Creator™-compatible expression vector, called an Ac-ceptor Vector. The Cre-LoxP recombination reaction transfers the Free-dom™ ORF directionally to the Acceptor vector without the loss or addi-tion of sequence. The resulting expression clone contains the ORF in bothproper orientation and reading frame. A variety of BD Creator™-com-patible expression vectors are commercially available or you can adaptthe vector of your choice to the BD Creator™ System using a 161-bpcassette.

� Incyte Gene Collection (IGC)cDNAs for human, rat, monkey, and dog

As a complement to the MGC, we offer the largely untapped Incytecollections for human, rat, monkey, and dog. A wide range of tissues arerepresented in each collection and together they contain over one millioncomplete full-length cDNAs, partial full-length cDNAs, and ESTs. “Com-plete full-length” cDNAs have been full-insert sequenced and contain acomplete ORF. “Partial full-length” cDNAs have been full-insert sequenced,but do not contain a complete ORF. While not fully annotated, thesecollections may be mined by BLASTing query sequences against our Incyteclone databases.

� Mammalian IMAGE ESTs

The IMAGE consortium was formed in 1993 to provide a public resourceto aid in gene discovery that would be free of patents/royalties andother restrictions. The IMAGE clone collection provides the community aresource of arrayed cDNA clones from various research efforts. Theclones are from oligo dT-primed, directionally cloned plasmid cDNA li-braries from human, mouse, rat, zebrafish, Xenopus and primate sources.The Cancer Genome Anatomy Project (CGAP) was formed in 1996 toinvestigate genes associated with cancerous cells at the molecular level.As a result, CGAP is responsible for thousands of expressed sequencetags (ESTs), which are continuously added to the IMAGE collection.

The three-spine stickleback (Gasterosteus aculeatus), a teleost fish, isan evolutionary model for morphological change that is growing in popu-larity. (It was mentioned under Science’s “Breakthrough of the Year” for2005.) We offer 6 collections of cDNAs originating from specific tissuesin different geographical populations.

� Zebrafish cDNA Library

The amplified version of the Danio rerio primary library used to createthe arrayed I.M.A.G.E. libraries NIH_ZGC_10 and NIH_ZGC_7 (normal-ized). Inserts were directionally cloned using oligo(dT) primers andwere ligated at the EcoRV and NotI sites.

� Zebrafish Gene Collection (ZGC)

The Zebrafish Gene Collection (ZGC) is a complete set of full-length cDNAclones of expressed genes for zebrafish. Each clone is supplied in aplasmid vector transformed into E. coli.

� Zebrafish IMAGE cDNAs

The IMAGE clone collection provides the community a resource of ar-rayed cDNA clones from various research efforts. The clones are fromoligo dT-primed, directionally cloned plasmid cDNA libraries from hu-man, mouse, rat, zebrafish, Xenopus and primate sources. The CancerGenome Anatomy Project (CGAP) was formed in 1996 to investigategenes associated with cancerous cells at the molecular level. As a result,CGAP is responsible for thousands of expressed sequence tags (ESTs),which are continuously added to the IMAGE collection.

� Zebrafish IMCB Collection

Singapore’s Institute for Molecular and Cell Biology (IMCB) has isolatedover 15,000 unique genetic markers from the zebrafish (Danio rerio). Atotal of 15,590 unique zebrafish EST clusters from two cDNA libraries(primary and normalized) have been identified. This EST set is comple-mentary to the existing ESTs in the public database and will be invaluablein assisting in the annotation of genes based on the upcoming zebrafishgenome sequence.

� Zebrafish Morpholino Collection

The Zebrafish Morpholino Collection contains hundreds of oligos designedand synthesized to rapidly reduce gene expression levels. Each sequenceis designed to block the translational start site of the targeted gene. Asmorpholinos are synthesized synthetically and are nuclease resistant, theexpression level reduction is specific and prolonged. Each gene’s startsite is identified and a morpholino is produced that is complementary to~25 bases -25 to +25 bases from the start.

� cDNA from C.elegans

� C. elegans ORF Collection

Dr. Marc Vidal’s laboratory at the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute hasgenerated the C. elegans Open Reading Frame (ceORF) clones repre-senting over 10,000 worm genes. The ceORFs were generated by ampli-fication from full length cDNA libraries and cloning into the Gateway2

recombinational cloning system (pDONR201). ceORF clones can besubcloned into any expression vector, using traditional restriction en-zyme and ligase cloning methods. Alternatively, the recombinational clon-ing system allows the target gene to be rapidly transferred in-frame intoa variety of expression vectors. Release 1.1 clones represent a pool ofcloned products, thus multiple splice variants are preserved in eachpool. ceORFs will be available in two different formats: glycerol stocksand spotted onto IsoCode® cards.

� C. elegans ORF-RNAi Collection

The C. elegans ORF-RNAi Collection includes clones containing full openreading frames for over 11,000 genes, ready for your RNAi screens!These clones are derived from the C. elegans ORFeome Library v1.1. The C. elegans ORF-RNAi Library provides you comprehensivecoverage for RNAi screening.

• Full Coding Regions: From Start-to-Stop, the entire open

reading frame is cloned into an RNAi feeding vector andcompatible host.

• Feeding Ready: The cloned ORFs have been transformed

into the RNAi feeding bacterial strain HT115(DE3)2 and thefeeding vector, PL4440.

• RNAi Versatility: Plasmid preps of the ORF-RNAi clones can

be used as templates for in vitro dsRNA synthesis for soakingor injection

� C. elegans Promoter Collection

The C. elegans Promoter Collection from Open Biosystems includes clonescontaining the predicted promoters for over 6,000 genes designed toeasily construct GFP reporter strains. Get ready to localize your proteinexpression patterns on a scale you never thought possible.

� cDNA from Yeast

� Candida albicans Genomic Library

The library is ready for transformation into the amenable Saccharomy-

ces cerevisiae to allow rapid, large-scale screens of C. albicans genesthat can generate a phenotype of interest. The library is supplied as anE. coli culture. The average size of inserts is ~4.3 Kb and they have beencloned into pRS426 (2u, URA3), a S. cerevisiae high copy vector. Thenumber of clones in the library is ~50,000 that covers the haploid genome14-fold and greater than 97% of the clones contain inserts.

� HA-Tagged Yeast Strains

The HA-Tagged Yeast Collection contains over 2,400 yeast mutagenizedstrains each producing a single protein with an inserted triple hemagglu-tinin epitope tag (3xHA). The HA insertion potentially provides severalmeans by which yeast protein function may be studied. Native amountsof protein can easily be purified from individual yeast strains usingimmunoprecipitation with a commercially available HA antibody. Also, HAinsertion may potentially generate conditional alleles and hypomorphicmutants that exhibit partial gene function of particular importance inthe analysis of essential genes.

� Yeast Insertional Mutant Strains

The Yeast Insertional Mutant collection contains over 3,600 mutagenizedyeast strains providing a set of gene disruption mutants for phenotypicanalysis. The mutagenized strains were developed via transposon inser-tional mutagenesis. The insertion of the transposon into the open readingframe (ORF) of the gene typically disrupts gene function, or insertionupstream or downstream of the ORF may result in mis-expression of thegene. The 6kb mTn contains the reporter gene lacZ, flanked by lox sites,and a 3xHA tag. The lacZ gene is lacking both its promoter and startcodon, thus, the expression is dependent on the transposon being in-serted in-frame into a gene and subsequently transcribed and trans-lated.

� Yeast Knockout Strains

The Saccharomyces Genome Deletion Project has developed a uniquecollection of knock-out strains covering 96% of the yeast genome. Thiscollection of over 6,000 gene-disruption mutants provides a unique toolfor the functional analysis of the yeast genome. The inclusion of distincttags - or “molecular barcodes” - that identify each strain allows pheno-typic analysis to be performed on a single gene basis or a genome-widescale. By using the yeast knock out strains for functional profiling, onecan also gather much information about human gene function by analogy.While >6000 represents the number of individual genes, there are fourbackgrounds (haploids of MATa and MATalpha, heterozygous diploid, andhomozygous diploid) with many genes available in more than one back-ground, thereby creating over 20,000 knock out strains.

� Yeast Magic Marker Strains

Genome-wide collections of yeast knockout (YKO) mutants have facili-tated the systematic functional analysis of yeast genes. However, haploidand homozygous diploid YKOs experience strong selection for compensa-tory mutations and so the genetic quality of such strains deterioratesover time. Knockout phenotypes can be protected from selection by“hiding” the mutation as a heterozygote with the wild-type allele. How-ever, it is then correspondingly difficult to detect the knockoutphenotype.The Magic Marker technology allows fresh creation of hap-loid knockouts from heterozygous diploids in a high-throughput mannerby employing a simple selection step following sporulation. Thus, a start-ing pool containing thousands of high-quality MATa haploid YKOs can beefficiently created.

� Yeast ORF Collection

The Yeast ORF Collection enables robust protein expression and purifica-tion for over 5500 S. cerevisiae genes. Each plasmid construct is avail-able in yeast or E. coli format as a glycerol stock.

• Open reading frame (ORF) clones provide a shortcut to

protein expression, allowing you to skip PCR, cloning into anexpression vector, and verifying the DNA sequence for eachconstruct.

• All yeast-format constructs have been verified by western

blotting to express protein of the correct length.

• The optional E. coli format enables easy conversion to

alternative yeast strains.

• The versatile 19-kDa tandem fusion tag enables a range of

detection and affinity purification strategies. In addition toProtein A and 6xHis domains, it contains a hemagglutination(HA) domain.

� Yeast TAP Fusion Collection

To facilitate global protein analyses, Dr. Erin O’Shea and Dr. JonathanWeissman (UCSF) have created a library where each ORF is tagged witha high-affinity epitope and expressed from its natural chromosomallocation. Through immunodetection of the common tag, a resource nowexists that provides a census of proteins expressed during log-phasegrowth and quantifies their absolute levels. The Yeast-TAP-Fusion Libraryallows the purification and selection of the entire yeast proteome andassociated components using two simple affinity selection steps in tandem,enabling the development of a range of high-throughput functional assays.The C-terminal TAP insertion cassette contains the coding region for amodified version of the TAP (Tandem Affinity Purification) tag, whichconsists of a calmodulin binding peptide, a TEV cleavage site and two IgGbinding domains of Staphylococcus aureus protein A, as well as a selectablemarker. Background strain = MatA (BY4741).

� Yeast Tet-Promoter Hughes Strains

The function of many of the essential genes has yet to be defined. In partthis is due to the difficulty of utilizing essential genes in functional as-says. The Tet-promoters Hughes collection (yTHC) from the Hughes Labo-ratory, University of Toronto, helps to overcome this barrier. The yTHCcollection contains 800 essential yeast genes for which expression is regu-lated by doxycycline. The endogenous promoter has been replaced witha Tet-titratable promoter in the genome. Thus, the expression of thegene can be switched off by the addition of doxycycline to the yeast’sgrowth medium.

� FISH Mapped BAC Clones

The Cancer Chromosome Aberration Project (CCAP), a joint initiativesupported by the NCI and NCBI, aims to develop tools that assist in theanalysis of chromosomal aberrations associated with malignant transfor-mation. To meet this objective, CCAP generated a set of cytogeneticallyFISH-mapped BAC clones at a resolution of 1-2Mb across the humangenome. The BACs have been physically mapped to the genome usingsequence tag sites (STS) and ordered using genetic linkage and/or radia-tion hybrid mapping data. Additionally, these clones are FISH mappedonto pro-metaphase spreads to allow high-resolution placement, uniformcoverage of the chromosomes, and their precise positioning relative toone another. This resource is the first collection to effectively integratethe cytogenetic and sequence maps of the human genome, thus facilitat-ing the transition to molecular cytogenetics.

� GenMap Human BAC Collection

A genome wide collection of evenly distributed mapped BAC clones hasbeen made available by Dr. Vivian Cheung’s lab at the University ofPennsylvania. Beginning with the RPCI-11 human male BAC library, STSmarkers were used as anchors to map the BACs to the genome, at ~1Mbresolution. A subset of these clones were used in the NCI CCAP projectand the results of the FISH analyses performed by the NCI CCAP on theseclones are available at both the GenMapDB and the CCAP web pages.

� Disease-specific Human Mapped BAC Collections

Break points in chromosomes, the evidence of which are deletions, in-sertions, inversions and translocations, have highlighted the role of genesin neoplasia. It was not long after researchers visualized these breakpointsthat they identified non-random associations between these microscopiclesions and specific disease phenotypes.

Disease-specific probe sets from Open Biosystems allow you access tocollections of clones that span known breakpoints associated with a par-ticular disease. These clones can be used on metaphase and interphasespreads using single or dual color FISH, as well as CGH to detect largerduplications, amplifications or deletions.

Each set contains FISH mapped clones that have been precisely placed onhuman chromosomes at approximately 1-2 Mb intervals. This has enabledthe identification and selection of BACs that either flank or encompassknown breakpoints associated with cancer.

� E. coli RNA Polymerase Core Enzyme andHoloenzyme (Sigma-Saturated)

Both the Core Enzyme and the Holoenzyme preparations of E. coli RNAPolymerase are isolated from the rifampicin-sensitive strain BL21.EPICENTRE is the only company that offers purified Core Enzyme, whichhas no detectable sigma subunit, and 100% sigma-saturated (s70)-Holoen-zyme.

The Core Enzyme is useful in studying mechanisms of transcriptioninitiation, since it will not initiate specific transcription at promotersequences on bacterial or bacteriophage DNA due to a lack of sigmafactor. However, the Core Enzyme will generate a variety of nonspecifictranscripts. The sigma-saturated Holoenzyme is very efficient inspecifically transcribing a variety of double-stranded DNA templatescontaining promoters.

� MiniV™ In Vitro Transcription Kit

MiniV™ In Vitro Transcription Kit provides MiniV™ RNA Polymerase*(MiniV RNAP) and all other components for in vitro transcription of RNAusing single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) templates that are functionally linkedto a single-stranded bacteriophage N4 promoter. MiniV RNAP is a tran-scriptionally-active 1,106-amino acid domain of the N4 virion RNA poly-merase.

Since it lacks RNA strand-displacement or unwinding activity on RNA:DNAhybrids, MiniV RNAP requires E. coli Single-Stranded Binding Protein(EcoSSB Protein) to displace the RNA transcript from the DNA templatestrand for efficient in vitro transcription. Like other RNA polymerases,MiniV RNAP can also synthesize concatameric RNA by rolling circle tran-scription of circular single-stranded DNA templates. Phage N4 transcrip-tion promoters used by MiniV RNAP are characterized by conservedsequences and a 5-basepair stem, 3-base loop hairpin structure.

� AmpliScribe™ T7 Aminoallyl-RNA Transcription Kit

The AmpliScribe™ T7 Aminoallyl-RNA Transcription Kit enables flexiblehigh-yield synthesis of aminoallyl-labeled RNA. The kit utilizes EPICENTRE’sAmpliScribe™ T7 high-yield in vitro transcription system to incorporate5-(3-aminoallyl)-UTP (AA-UTP) into the RNA transcript. Since AA-UTP isincorporated into RNA with the same efficiency as UTP, high yields ofaminoallyl-labeled RNA are obtained. The aminoallyl-RNA product canthen be reacted with amine-reactive biotinylation reagents or fluores-cent dyes to obtain biotin-labeled or fluorescently-labeled RNA, respec-tively. Biotin-X-X-NHS is available from EPICENTRE for making biotin-labeled RNA, and amine-reactive dyes, such as N-hydroxy-succinimidyl(NHS) esters of fluorescent dyes, are commercially available from manysources. This method for making non-radioactively-labeled RNA is muchmore efficient and much less expensive than direct incorporation offluorescent- or biotin-labeled NTPs into RNA during in vitro transcrip-tion.

Applications

• Production of non-radioactive RNA probes for any purpose,

including:

• - In situ hybridization experiments.

• - Blotting experiments.

new MessageMAX™ T7 Capped Message Transcription Kit gives the high-est possible yield of capped RNA in just 30 minutes and, since it will havea 2-Way Cap, you should observe higher translational efficiencies usingthe 5'-capped RNA generated.

Since the new 2-Way Cap included in the MessageMAX™ T7 Capped MessageTranscription Kit is a symmetrical molecule , 100% of the caps in the RNAproduced are in the correct orientation, increasing translation efficiencyof the RNA.

If the capped RNA is to be used for translation studies, translationalefficiencies can be much higher if the mRNA is also polyadenylated,especially if the mRNA is intended for use in vivo following transfectionor microinjection.

� Standard Cap, 2-Way™ Cap, ARCA Cap,Unmethylated Cap and Trimethyl Cap Analogs

When a Cap Analog is substituted for a portion of the GTP present in anin vitro transcription reaction, up to ~80% of the transcripts will have acap on their 5'-end. RNA prepared for microinjection into oocytes or fortransfection into eukaryotic cells should be capped.

Anti-reverse cap analogs (ARCAs), such as 3'-O-methyl-m7GpppG, werefound to result in synthesis of transcripts that were more efficientlytranslated in vitro because the O-methyl group only permitted them tobe incorporated in the correct orientation.

� Kool™ NC-45™ Universal RNA Polymerase Template

Kool™ NC-45™ Universal RNA Polymerase Templates are small (28-150 nucle-otide) circular single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) molecules. As observed inthe laboratory of Dr. Eric Kool, these DNA nanocircles can be efficientlytranscribed in vitro by a variety of DNA-dependent RNA polymerases(RNAP) by rolling circle mechanism. Bacterial RNAPs transcribe Kool™templates in the absence of sigma factors, permitting studies of RNApolymerization mechanisms and inhibitor effects on the core RNAP. Whenusing a Kool Template, RNA is produced in significant excess over thetemplate DNA. Real-time detection methods for rolling circle transcrip-tion include use of dyes that exhibit fluorescence enhancement uponnucleic acid binding, such as SYBR® Green I dye, SYBR® Gold or RiboGreen®

(Molecular Probes), or use of molecular beacons.

• Screening for bacterial DNA-dependent RNAP activity.

• Screening compounds for RNAP inhibitor activity.

• Preparation of concatamers of short RNA sequences

� Kool™ NC-45™ RNAP Activity & InhibitorScreening Kit

The Kool™ NC-45™ RNAP Activity & Inhibitor Screening Kit utilizes theKool™ NC-45™ Template to screen inhibitors of rolling circle transcrip-tion by bacterial polymerases. Compounds can be screened for inhibi-tion of E. coli RNAP or inhibitors can be assayed on an RNAP provided bythe user. The high product-to-template ratio of rolling circle transcrip-tion allows a variety of detection methods in addition to following incor-poration of radioactive nucleotides. End-point or real-time monitoringis possible with fluorescent dyes or with molecular beacons. The Kool NC-45 Screening Kit uses SYBR® Green I Dye (Molecular Probes) for real-timedetection of RNAP activity.

Benefits

☛☛☛☛☛ Expression Arrest shRNAmir controls

Changes in the mRNA or protein levels in cells treated with negative ornon-silencing controls reflect non-specific responses in cells and canbe used as a baseline against which specific knockdown can be measured.

☛☛☛☛☛ Available Expression Arrest shRNAmir controls:

• Non-silencing shRNAmir construct

• Exogenous positive controls

• eGFP shRNA construct

• Luciferase shRNA construct.

• βββββ -gal reporter

� Mammalian RNAi

� shRNAmir libraries

shRNAmir triggers for mammalian RNAi are based on current knowledgeof the endogenous microRNA processing pathway. shRNAmir constructs aredesigned to mimic a natural microRNA primary transcript, enablingspecific processing by the endogenous RNAi pathway and producing moreeffective knockdown. In addition each gene-specific shRNAmir sequencehas been selected based on thermodynamic criteria for optimal smallRNA performance. The Expresion Arrest shRNAmir libraries incorporateseveral features aimed at increasing the efficiency and specificity ofgene knockdown and provide solutions for diverse RNAi applications.

Unique features include:

MessageMuter™ shRNA Production Kit

RNA interference (RNAi) is a powerful technique for elucidation of genefunction. Short hairpin RNA (shRNA) produced by chemical synthesis, invitro transcription, or expressed in vivo, has been shown to silencegenes as effectively as short dsRNAs.

The MessageMuter shRNA Production Process

The MessageMuter shRNA Production Kit utilizes a simple and unique 3-step process (Figure 1) that yields transfection-ready shRNA in about4 hours. A 17-base T7 Promoter Oligo is annealed to a DNA oligodesigned by the user using detailed instructions provided. The ends ofthe annealed duplex are “filled-in” using the Exo-Minus Klenow toobtain a linear dsDNA with a T7 RNAP promoter at its 5'-end. Followingin vitro transcription, the RNA produced spontaneously forms ahairpin structure (shRNA). Following clean-up, the shRNA is ready fortransfection into cultured cells. The MessageMuter shRNA kit providesreagents to produce 10 shRNAs in sufficient quantities for hundreds ofRNAi experiments.

Applications

• Production of shRNA for RNA Interference, micro RNA

studies, or other applications.

Benefits

• Produces shRNA in vitro using one user-designed oligo and

one in vitro transcription reaction.

• No need for annealing of sense and anti-sense RNA strands asrequired by other in vitro transcription-based methods.

T5 Exonuclease is a highly efficient 5' → 3' exonuclease for either single-stranded or duplex DNA. It has a tightly associatedsingle-strand-specific endonuclease activity when used in the presenceof 1-10 mM divalent magnesium ions. This activity may be selectivelysuppressed by using low concentrations of magnesium ions (< 1 mM),allowing nicked, double-stranded circular DNA to be “gapped” to a single-stranded circular species. The mode of action of T5 Exonuclease in vivo

may be analogous to that of the 5' → 3' exonuclease activity of E. coli DNApolymerase I. In the absence of divalent metal cofactors, T5 Exonucleaseis able to bind to DNA with a single-strand arm adjacent to a duplex DNAregion.

Applications

The following examples of In Vitro Transposomics applicationsare discussed in this category:

• EZ-Tn5™<T7/KAN-2> Promoter Insertion Kit: Introduce a

phage T7 promoter into cloned DNA and generate RNAtranscripts in vitro or in vivo from the insertion site.

• EZ-Tn5™ <R6Kγori/KAN-2> Insertion Kit: Rapidly character-

ize plasmids that otherwise would not replicate in E.coli byrandomly inserting an E.coli conditional origin of replication(R6Kγ ori) and a kanamycin resistance marker.

• EZ-Tn5™ β-Lactamase Fusion Kit: Directly select genes

encoding cell envelope and secreted proteins by creatingtranslational fusions to β-lactamase.

• EZ-Tn5™ pMOD™ Transposon Construction Vectors: Use these

vectors to make a custom EZ-Tn5 Transposon having aselectable marker, reporter gene, control element, or anyother DNA sequence of interest.

☛ Criteria for Choosing a Transposon System

EPICENTRE has hyperactive Tn5-based EZ-Tn5™ Transposon Systems andhyperactive phage Mu-based HyperMu™ Transposon Systems for both invitro and in vivo applications. The properties of these and other com-mercial systems are summarized in the following table and importantcriteria for choosing between them are discussed below.

In Vitro Transposomics™: Endless PossibilitiesTRANSPOSOMICS

Insert Promoters, Origin of replication

*The “in vivo transposition frequency” data here refers to the relativenumber of colonies obtained containing transposon insertions followingelectroporation of electrocompetent E. coli cells with a synaptic complex(“Transposome™ Complex) formed between a transposon and therespective transposase.

** HyperMu™ MuA Transposase can insert transposons with Mu Ends havingfree 3'-termini into another DNA, but is unable to excise the transposonfrom another DNA.

EZ-Tn5 Systems have very high transposition efficiencies for in vitro

insertion, as well as for in vivo insertion of an EZ-Tn5 Transposome™Complex, the synaptic complex formed between an EZ-Tn5 Transposaseand an EZ-Tn5 Transposon. Although EPICENTRE’s HyperMu™ MuATransposase is at least 50 times more active for in vitro transpositionthan the MuA transposase from other suppliers and almost as active asthe EZ-Tn5 System in vitro, the HyperMu Transposome™ Complex generates10-100 times fewer insertions than the EZ-Tn5 System in vivo usingE. coli.

☛ Inserting a T7 RNA Polymerase Promoter toTranscribe from the Insertion Site

☛ EZ-Tn5™ <T7/KAN-2> Promoter Insertion Kit

The EZ-Tn5™ <T7/KAN-2> Promoter Insertion Kit provides an easy andreliable method to randomly insert a transposon containing a phage T7RNA polymerase promoter into any DNA molecule in vitro. A simple twohour in vitro reaction randomly inserts a single EZ-Tn5™ <T7/KAN-2>Transposon into the plasmid, cosmid, fosmid or BAC clone. Then, follow-ing transformation into E. coli, transposon insertion clones are selectedon kanamycin plates. The insertion site of individual kanamycin-resistantinsertion clones can be mapped or sequenced bidirectionally using thetwo sequencing primers included in the kit. The transposon end has notermination sequences, so RNA can be produced from chosen insertionclones by in vitro transcription from the T7 RNA polymerase promoter.

☛☛☛☛☛ Inserting an E. coli Origin of Replication toRescue Heterologous Episomes

☛ EZ-Tn5™ <R6Kγγγγγ ori/KAN-2> Insertion Kit

The EZ-Tn5™ <R6Kγ ori/KAN-2> Insertion Kit facilitates sequencing andgenetic analysis of plasmids or any other circularized DNA that would nototherwise replicate in E. coli. The kit uses the EZ-Tn5™ <R6Kγ ori/KAN-2>Transposon which carries the E. coli R6Kγ conditional origin of replica-tion (R6Kγ ori) and a kanamycin resistance marker. A simple, one-step,2-hour in vitro reaction is performed to randomly insert the EZ-Tn5<R6Kγ ori/KAN-2> Transposon into your target DNA. Then an aliquot ofthe reaction is used to transform an E. coli host expressing the pir geneproduct, which is required for replication from the R6Kγ ori. Insertionclones are selected on kanamycin plates and can be sequencedbidirectionally using the provided primers that are homologous to theends of the transposon.

Applications

• “Rescue” plasmids or any other circularized DNA (e.g.,

mitochondria) that would not otherwise replicate in E. coli

because they lack a recognizable origin of replication and/or a selectable marker.

• Prepare DNA sequencing templates from transposon

insertion clones and completely sequence the clone withoutprimer walking or additional subcloning.

• Create a library of random gene knockouts in vitro to

facilitate genetic analysis of plasmid-encoded genes.

Transposon Construction VectorsTRANSPOSOMICS

Custom Transposons

☛ Vectors for Making Custom EZ-Tn5™ Transposons

☛ EZ-Tn5™ Transposon Construction Vectors

EPICENTRE offers four different EZ-Tn5™ pMOD™ Transposon Construc-tion Vectors for the preparation of custom EZ-Tn5™ Transposons (Table1). Each vector contains a multiple cloning site (MCS) flanked by thehyperactive 19-bp Mosaic Ends (ME, denoted by < >) that are specifi-cally and uniquely recognized by EZ-Tn5™ Transposase. To prepare yourtransposon, clone any DNA sequence of interest (e.g., selectable marker,control element, reporter gene) into the MCS and then generate thetransposon either by PCR amplification or restriction enzyme digestion.

The Transposon Construction Vectors pMOD-2<MCS> and pMOD-3<R6Kγ ori/MCS> are pUC-based vectors. They consist of ME sequencesthat flank an MCS in a vector with a colE1 origin of replication (Figure 1).EZ-Tn5 pMOD-3<R6Kγori/MCS> also contains an R6Kγori within the MEsequences, which is useful for a variety of rescue cloning applications.These vectors work well for constructing transposons in most cases.

The colE1 ori was eliminated in pMOD-4<MCS> and pMOD-5<R6Kγori/MCS>, which only have the R6Kγori (Figure 2). Replication from the R6Kγorigin in these two new vectors is dependent on the pir gene productproduced by TransforMAX™ EC100D™ pir+ and pir-116 E.coli cells. Sincemost bacterial strains do not contain a pir gene, the uncut plasmid DNAthat contaminates these transposon preparations can’t replicate andbackground problems are eliminated.

Your custom EZ-Tn5 Transposon can be used for insertion into any targetDNA in vitro. In vitro transposition of R6Kγ ori-containing transposonscan be used, for example, to rescue plasmids that would not otherwisereplicate in E. coli because they lack a recognizable origin of replicationand/or a selectable marker. You can also make your own EZ-Tn5™Transposomes for random insertion into genomic DNA of living cells byincubating your custom EZ-Tn5 Transposon with EZ-Tn5 Transposase inthe absence of Mg2+. The presence of an R6Kγ ori enables you to rapidlyrescue the genomic DNA flanking the transposon insertion site.

Figure 1. EZ-Tn5™ Transposon Construction Vectors pMOD™-2<MCS>and pMOD™-3<R6Kγγγγγori/MCS> replicate in standard E. coli strainsusing a colE1 origin of replication. Transposons made with the

pMOD™-3<R6Kγγγγγ ori/MCS> vector also have an R6Kγγγγγ ori within the

transposon, for rescue cloning applications.

Figure 2. EZ-Tn5™ Transposon Construction Vectors pMOD™-4<MCS>and pMOD™-5<R6Kγγγγγori/MCS> lack a colE1 origin of replication andrequire E. coli strains that produce a pir gene product for replica-tion.

Among the advantages of transposon mutagenesis is that the transposonserves as a marker that can be used to clone and sequence the region ofgenomic DNA that has been disrupted. Nothing makes this cloning processeasier than creating mutations in vivo with the EZ-Tn5™ <R6Kγ ori/KAN-2>Tnp Transposome™ Kit. In addition to encoding a kanamycin-resis-tance gene, the transposon contains an E.coli conditional origin of repli-cation (R6Kγ ori). The presence of this origin of replication enables youto propagate or “rescue” the region of genomic DNA into which thetransposon has been inserted.

EZ-Tn5™ Transposome™ complexes are formed between an EZ-Tn5™Transposon and EZ-Tn5™ Transposase and provide a simple and reliablemethod for generating a library of random gene knockouts in vivo. Justelectroporate the EZ-Tn5 Transposome into any of a broad range ofliving cells and select for a marker encoded by the EZ-Tn5 Transposon.Because there is no need for cell conjugation, suicide vectors, or spe-cific host factors, EZ-Tn5 Transposomes are ideal for creating mutantsin species that have poorly described genetic systems or lack adequatemolecular tools.

Ready-to-use EZ-Tn5 Transposomes are available containing either a kana-mycin selectable marker (<KAN-2>) or dihydrofolate reductase gene(<DHFR-1>) that can be selected on plates containing trimethoprim. Thesemarkers are readily expressed in many gram-negative bacteria. Or youcan create your own EZ-Tn5 Transposome using one of the EZ-Tn5™ pMOD™Transposon Construction Vectors and EZ-Tn5 Transposase.

The HyperMu <R6K?ori/KAN-1>Tnp Transposome is the stable complexbetween HyperMu™ Transposase and a HyperMu™ Transposon containingan R6K? E. coli conditional origin of replication and a kanamycin select-able marker. The Transposome can be electroporated into living cellswhere it is activated by intracellular Mg2+ and the HyperMu Transposon israndomly inserted into the host’s genomic DNA. Transposon insertionclones are selected on kanamycin plates or by screening for a desiredgene “knockout” or loss of gene function.

The transposon insertion site can be sequenced directly using bacterialgenomic DNA as template and the provided primers that are homologousto the ends of the inserted HyperMu Transposon. Alternatively, the inser-tion site and its flanking DNA can be “rescued” as a plasmid and thensequenced.

☛ Make Unidirectional Truncations of a ProteinEncoded by Any Sequence

☛☛☛☛☛ EZ-Tn5™ Protein Truncation Kit

☛☛☛☛☛ Mu-End™ Protein Truncation Kit

The EZ-Tn5™ Protein Truncation Kit and the Mu-End™ Protein TruncationKit provide a convenient method for generating a library of N-terminaland C-terminal protein deletions that can be expressed in E. coli. TheEZ-Tn5 Protein Truncation Kit features the EZ-Tn5™ <p15Aori /KAN-2/T7Exp> Transposon, which is randomly inserted into any target DNA usinga simple, in vitro reaction catalyzed by EZ-Tn5™ Transposase. Then, thetransposition reaction is amplified by PCR using one primer that annealsnear a transposon end and another primer that anneals to a fixed pointin the target sequence. Since the transposon is randomly inserted alongthe length of the target sequence, amplification generates a library of N-terminal or C-terminal deletions, depending on the choice of primers.Using the End-Repair Mix and Fast-Link DNA Ligase provided in the kit,the pool of PCR products is blunt-ended and self-ligated to create alibrary of kanamycin-resistant “rescue” clones that can replicate fromthe p15Aori in standard strains of E. coli. Rescue clones with an N-terminal deletion will also contain a transposon-derived T7-promoterregion in a 5'-to-3' orientation. At least one-third of these clones willgenerate in-frame protein fusions that can be expressed in cells contain-ing a T7 RNA polymerase gene (e.g., E. coli BL21).

The kit features the EZ::TN™ <Not I/KAN-3> Transposon, which containsa kanamycin-resistance (KanR) marker flanked by Not I restriction sites.An in vitro enzymatic reaction randomly inserts a single EZ::TN <Not I/KAN-3> Transposon into each clone and produces >106 kanamycin-resistantinsertion clones. Insertion clones for further analysis can be identifiedby gene functional analysis or by mapping or DNA sequencing of thetransposon insertion site. Once clones are chosen, the kanamycin resistancegene is excised from the transposon by Not I digestion. Each Not I-digested clone is then ligated and transformed into high-efficiency E.

coli. The resulting clones each contain a single, random 19-codon insertionthat can be read to express protein in all three reading frames. Thus,the protein retains its original amino acid sequence on both sides of theinsertion site.

Benefits

• Generate a population of >106 insertion clones, each with a

single randomly inserted transposon, to provide completecoverage of the clone.

• More versatile than traditional Linker Scanning Mutagen-

esis—the EZ::TN Transposon insertion is random and notlimited to pre-existing restriction endonuclease sites in thecloned DNA.

• Unique Not I restriction site in the linker insertion facili-

tates mapping and additional gene construction.

☛ Mutagenesis kits

JBS dNTP-Mutagenesis Kit is based on the incorporation of the mu-tagenic dNTP analogs 8-oxo-dGTP and dPTP into an amplified DNA frag-ment by PCR. The mutagenic dNTPs are eliminated by a second PCR stepin the presence of the four natural dNTPs only, resulting in a rate ofmutagenesis of up to 20%.

JBS Error-Prone Kit introduces mutations in the gene of interest usingmodified PCR reaction conditions. An increased MgCl

2 concentration,

the addition of MnCl2 and the unbalanced ratio of dNTPs induce an in-

creased error-rate of the DNA-polymerase. The rate of mutagenesisachieved by error-prone PCR is in the range of 0.6-2.0%.

JBS DNA-Shuffling Kit is designed to generate gene libraries by randomfragmentation of one gene or a pool of related genes. A controlled frag-mentation of the DNA is followed by a random reassembly in a self-priming PCR reaction. This method allows the recombination of sequencesfrom different, related genes. The overall rate of mutagenesis is approx.0.7%.

☛ Kits for Inserting Priming Sites for Sequencing

☛ EZ-Tn5™ <KAN-2>, EZ-Tn5™ <TET-1>, andEZ-Tn5™ <DHFR-1> Insertion Kits

EZ-Tn5™ Insertion Kits are designed to simplify and speed up completesequencing of any cloned DNA >2 Kb, without primer walking or subcloning.Just use a simple, one-step in vitro reaction to randomly insert a singleEZ-Tn5™ Transposon containing a selectable marker – either kanamycinresistance (<KAN>), tetracycline resistance (<TET>), or trimethoprimresistance encoded by the dihydrofolate reductase gene (<DHFR>) - intothe clone. Then, transform E. coli cells with an aliquot of the reactionand select for the marker encoded by the EZ-Tn5 Transposon. Use theprimers provided in the kits to sequence insertion clones bidirectionallyfrom primer binding sites at the ends of the inserted transposon.

Benefits

• Faster—Completely sequence plasmid, cosmid, fosmid, and BACclones 10-times faster than by subcloning or primer walking.

• More Complete Sequence Coverage—Based on the highly ran-dom hyperactive in vitro Tn5 transposition system ensuresthat the primer binding sites are distributed throughout yourclone, even into regions that are difficult to subclone or primerwalk.

• A single reaction generates up to >106 insertion clones.• Use a single set of sequencing primers (provided in the kits) to

completely sequence your clone.

Vortex Mixers and StirrersINSTRUMENTS

Mixing & Stirring

The Bio-Pulverizer re-duces tissue hard-frozenin liquid nitrogen to afine powder.Called freeze-fractur-ing, this method is espe-cially useful for tough,fibrous tissues such asskin, cartilage, cornea,etc.

The Bio-Pulverizer consists of a hole machined in a stainless steel base,into which fits a special piston. In a typical procedure, up to 10g ofanimal or plant tissue is hard-frozen in liquid nitrogen and placed in thepre-chilled Bio-Pulverizer. The piston is mounted on an easy to use trig-ger mechanism that is squeezed to deliver a blow to the brittle tissuereducing it to a fine powder. Freeze fracturing with the BioPulverizer isalso useful for extracting labile tissue metabolites and as a preliminarystep to other homogenization techniques.

Crystal Screening KitsX-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHY

Crystal Screens

☛ JBScreen Crystal Screening Kits

The JBScreen Crystal Screening Kits 1-10 cover 240 of the most promi-nent buffers for protein crystallization. Their compositions result fromdata mining of several thousands of crystallized proteins. JBScreen rep-resents the statistically most successful buffers that yielded proteincrystals suitable for X-ray diffraction. Just check out the formulationsof JBScreen, you will probably recognize your conditions or very similarones.

The JBScreen buffers are principally ordered by type and concentra-tion of the precipitant. This allows easy extraction of all relevant infor-mation and is already a first step to a refinement: Once you get a hit,you immediately see the effects of the neighboring conditions. Subse-quent fine-tuning of preliminary hits will be much more efficient.

Each kit contains 24 buffers, delivered in 0.7 ml sterile aliquots, with 10units per kit.

Alternatively, the JBScreen Mixed kit contains one single shot of all the240 buffers. The 6x4 format of the units allows a convenient 1:1 setup for24 (or multiples thereof) well plates. It’s easy to use – every ampoule andthe unit’s package has a “coordinate system” (A1–A6 ... D1–D6), thusalmost certainly eliminating errors.

• No pipetting, just break off the ampoule’s top and use thebuffer aliquot –

• JBScreen is always fresh and sterile unlike common bulksolutions

• Reproducible- no evaporation of solvent

Crystal Optimization

☛ JBS Solubility Kit

The JBS Solubility Kit is a pre-crystallization screen to improve thecomposition of the initial protein buffer solution prior to performingcrystallization set-ups. Studies have shown that aggregation of the pro-tein may inhibit nucleation and crystal growth. Therefore, the JBS Solu-bility Kit has been developed to investigate protein samples towardstheir homogeneity and monodispersity prior to crystallization trials,employing hanging drop vapour diffusion experiments combined withdynamic light scattering.

The JBS Solubility Kit contains a set of 24 buffer solutions at differentpH-values for setting up hanging drop vapour diffusion experiments inorder to monitor the aggregation and precipitation of the protein sample,and a set of 14 additives used for further optimization employing dy-namic light scattering.

☛ pHat™ Buffer Screen

The pHat™ Buffer Screen is a set of 96 different buffer solutions encom-passing 12 different buffer systems at 8 different pHs each ranging insteps of 0.4 pH units from ±1.4 pH units about the buffer pKa. Thebuffers are organized according to their final pH so as to facilitate thesetup of subsequent refinement screens. The pHat™ buffers can alsosimply be added to any other 96 formulation screen to add anotherchemical dimension to the search for optimized crystal growth condi-tions.

pHat™ Buffers in 96 Well Block Plate: The buffers are delivered in a 96deep well block plate filled with 1.7 ml of each buffer solution at 10x therecommended final concentration.

☛ JBS Methylation Kit

Surface engineering of biological macromolecules provides a powerfultechnique to deal with proteins which are reluctant to crystallize orwhich yield poorly diffracting crystals only. The JBS Methylation Kitoffers a straightforward tool for the selective methylation of lysineresidues. The method does not require laborious cloning/expression/purifi cation but chemically substitutes the protons of the amino groupof lysine residues with methyl groups.

X-RAY CRYSTALLOGRAPHYHeavy Atom DerivatizationHeavy Atom Derivatization for Crystallography

☛ JBScreen Heavy

The search for suitable heavy-atom derivatives is often a tedious pro-cess and usually requires screening of a broad range of heavy atoms. TheJBScreen Heavy kit will shorten this process: It contains a collection of24 of the most successful heavy-atom compounds, selected from datamining of heavy-atom derivatized protein crystals, which have beensuccessfully employed in structure determination of biological macro-molecules. Each of the 24 heavy-atom compounds is supplied in threeidentical solid aliquots.

☛ Halogenated nucleotides as rational phasingtools for protein crystallography

For solution of the macromolecular phase problem, the most commonlyused methods (multiple isomorphous replacement (MIR) and that of mul-tiple wavelength anomalous dispersion (MAD)) still involve the incorpora-tion of heavy atoms into protein crystals. After crystallization, findingsuch derivatives is the second major bottle neck in the determination ofthe 3D structure of bio-macromolecules. Most labeling procedures focuson the protein itself in a “trial and error” fashion. Halogenated ATP andGTP analogs however, provide an alternative method that allows rationalincorporation of heavy atoms into a large number of physiologically rel-evant enzymes:

• In the human genome alone, estimated 5,000 to 10,000proteins interact with ATP or GTP.

• The incorporation of iodine or bromine allows MIR or MADphasing for proteins with molecular weights of at least up to50 kDa. Importantly, for MIR experiments, such derivativesare likely to be isomorphous with the native crystal.

• The kinetics of binding of 2’-halogenated ATP analogs tomost enzymes so far investigated.

☛ JBS Halo Kits

Fluorescein di- β -D-galactopyranoside (FDG) is one of the most sensitivefluorogenic substrates available for detecting β -galactosidase. Galac-tosidase-catalyzed hydrolysis of FDG can be followed by fluorescenceincrease around 520 nm. FDG has been widely used for identifying lacZ-positive cells with fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry.

☛ Resorufin βββββ -D-Galactopyranoside

Unlike FDG that requires a two-step hydrolysis to generate maximumfluorescence, resorufin β -D-galactopyranoside requires only a single-step hydrolysis reaction to attain full fluorescence. Resorufin galacto-side has also been used to quantitate β -galactosidase activity in singleyeast cells by flow cytometry and to detect immobilized β-galactosidaseactivity.

GTP Family- RasSIGNAL TRANSDUCTION

GTP-Ras

� Small GTPases (Ras Superfamily) - Ras Family

GTPases of the Ras superfamily represent a group of more than fiftyproteins that function as molecular switches controlling a variety ofsignaling and transport pathways essential for numerous cellular functions.They were grouped, according to sequence homologies, into five principalbranches: Ras family, Rab family, Ran family, Rho/Rac/Cdc42 family andSar1/Arf family. Mutations in Ras proteins that block them in aconstitutively active state are found in 30 to 60% of human malignancies.Ras-proteins have a molecular mass of 21 kDa. Suitable as a substrate forfarnesyltransferase.

H-Ras is one of the classic human Ras proteins (H-, N-, K-Ras4A, and K-Ras4B.

H-Ras∆C comprises the first 166 residues of Ras that are sufficient forbinding guanine nucleotides and hydrolysis of GTP, but lacks the C-terminalCaaX motif necessary for membrane localization of Ras.

H-Ras∆C (aa 1 - 171) lacks the C-terminus with the CaaX recognitionsequence necessary for anchoring Ras into the plasma membrane. Themutation S17N results in a 40-fold increase in the affinity for GTP withoutaffecting its affinity for GDP.

The mutation Q61L results in a decreased GTPase activity as well asincreased GDP/GTP exchange. This mutant constitutively activates theRas-signaling pathway.

The mutation G12V leads to elimination of the intrinsic GTPase activity.H-Ras (G12V) is effective in activation of PI3K and PKB, whereas N-Rasand K-Ras are more potent towards MAP kinase.

K-Ras, one of three classic human Ras genes, is spliced to two differentisoforms, K-Ras4A and K-Ras4B. K-Ras4B is the predominant product ofthe alternative splicing pathway and the Ras protein encoded by thecommonly mutated Ras gene in human cancer.

Stimulation of Ba/F3-Fms cells with either IL-3 or CSF-1 resulted in efficientactivation of both K-Ras 4B and M-Ras. Stimulation of fibroblasts withEGF also led to more efficient activation of K-Ras 4B than of H-Ras or N-Ras, and the activation of M-Ras was very strong.

An S27N mutant of M-Ras, like the analogous H-Ras S17N mutant, was adominant inhibitor of activation of the c-fos promoter by constitutivelyactive Src Y527F, suggesting that M-Ras and p21 Ras shared guaninenucleotide exchange factors and are likely to be activated in parallel. M-Ras (Q71L) is a constitutive active mutant of M-Ras.

N-Ras ∆C comprises the first 167 residues of Ras that are sufficient forbinding guanine nucleotides and hydrolysis of GTP, but lacks the C-terminalCaaX motif necessary for membrane localization of Ras.

TC21 is a Ras-like GTPase with high oncogenic potential that is foundmutated in some human tumors and overexpressed in breast cancer celllines. TC21 binds physically to c-Raf-1 in a GTP-dependent manner.

TC21 (Q72L) is a constitutive active mutant of TC21.

Rap1A, in contrast to Ras, is found largely in mid-Golgi, endocyticvesicles, and lysosomal vesicles, indicating different cellular functions ofthe proteins. In developmental systems, the functions of Rap proteinsseem to be related primarily to morphological and differentiative events,rather than to those that govern proliferation and cell-fate specification,phenomena that often require signaling via conventional Ras proteins.

The G12V mutant is a constitutively active mutant of Rap1A.

Rap1B is known to antagonize the mitotic and transforming activity ofRas. Rap1B can be activated by cAMP known to either stimulate orinhibit cell proliferation. The deletion of 17 C-terminal amino acids inRap1B ∆C leads to the loss of the phosphorylation site Ser179 and thegeranyl-geranylation site.

� Small GTPases (Ras Superfamily) - Rab Family

Rab proteins are small GTP-binding proteins that form the largest familywithin the Ras superfamily. Rab proteins regulate vesicular traffickingpathways, behaving as membrane-associated molecular switches.

Rab1A is a small GTPase that belongs to the Ras superfamily. Rab proteinsplay an important role in various aspects of membrane traffic, includingcargo selection, vesicle budding, vesicle motility, tethering, docking,and fusion. For example, Rab1A, Rab1B and Rab2 are located inthe ER toGolgi intermediate compartment and cis Golgi cisternae and are requiredfor ER to Golgi and intra Golgi transport.

The small GTPase Rab2 is a resident of pre-Golgi intermediates and isrequired for protein transport from the endoplasmic reticulum to theGolgi complex.

Rab3A, a member of the Rab small G protein family, is involved in theprocess of Ca2+-dependent neurotransmitter release. Rab3A activity isregulated by a GDP/GTP exchange protein (Rab3 GEP), a Rab GDPdissociation inhibitor (Rab GDI), and a GTPaseactivating protein (Rab3GAP). The Rab3A recycling is coupled with synaptic vesicle trafficking.

The monomeric GTPase Rab4 is associated with early endosomes andregulates recycling vesicle formation. Together with Rab5 it act to controlinflux and efflux out of early endosomes.

Rab6A is a small GTPase that belongs to the Ras superfamily. It mediatesintra-Golgi vesicular trafficking and is geranylgeranylated on both C-terminal cysteines.

Rab7 is a 23.5 kDa small GTPase localized in late endosomes. Rab7 regulateslate endocytic membrane traffic between endosomes and lysosomes. Theprotein contains a C-terminal CXC motif for post-translationalgeranylgeranylation.

The small GTPase Rab17 is restricted to epithelial cells and its expressionis induced during cell polarization. In addition to the network of ubiquitousRab GTPases, a set of epithelia-specific Rab proteins, including Rab17,Rab18, Rab20, and Rab25, facilitates endocytic and transcytotic transportto the apical and basolateral plasma membranes.

Rab24 exists predominantly in the GTP state when expressed in culturedcells. The low GTPase activity is related to the presence of serine insteadof glutamine at the position cognate to Ras Gln-61. Rab24 was found inthe endoplasmic reticulum/cis-Golgi region and on late endosomalstructures. The localization of Rab24 may indicate its involvement inautophagyrelated processes.

The monomeric GTPase Rab27 subfamily regulates the exocytosis of thesecell-specific store organelles. Rab27 acts through organelle-specificeffector proteins, such as granuphilin in pancreatic beta cells andmelanophilin in melanocytes. The Rab27 and effector complex theninteracts with proteins that are essential for membrane transport andfusion.

Rab GDP Dissociation Inhibitor (RabGDI) forms complexes with cytosolicprenylated GDP-bound Rab proteins and delivers them to the targetmembrane. It also retreaves GDP-bound Rab proteins from the membranereleases.

� Small GTPases - Ran Family

Ran (Ras-related nuclear protein) is involved in diverse cellular pro-cesses like nucleo-cytosplasmic transport of proteins into the nucleusand RNA into the cytoplasm, mitotic spindle assembly, and post-mitoticnuclear assembly. The Ran-regulated nucleo-cytoplasmic transport throughthe nuclear core complex occurs in conjunction with importins andexportins.

The mutation T24N results in no or little binding to GTP and is known toact as a negative inhibitor of nuclear import.

Ran Q69L is defective in GTP hydrolysis. Useful as a negative control forRan binding and import studies.

The mutation Q69L abolishes GTP hydrolysis. The mutation G19V resultsin a gain-of-function mutant that is not, however, sensitive to the ex-change factor RCC1.

The mutation E70A results in inhibition of the guanine exchange reactionmediated by RCC1, the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) forRan.

� Small GTPases - Rho/Rac/Cdc42 Family

Rho family GTPases Rac1 and Cdc42 (cell division cycle 42) belong to theRas superfamily of small GTP-binding proteins. The human homolog ofyeast Cdc42 is essential for cell polarity and regulates cytoskeletal rear-rangements in responses to growth factor stimulation.

The C-terminal deletion of 13 amino acids of Cdc42 DC includes thepolybasic domain consisting of six contiguous basic amino acids. Thepolybasic domain of Cdc42 is required for homodimer formation.

The Gly12 to Val mutation of Cdc42 DC leads to a constitutive activeprotein.

Rac1 is involved in regulation of cell growth to cytoskeletal organisationrequired for cell motility and cell adhesion.The C-terminal deletion offive amino acids of Rac1DC (aa 1 - 187) includes arginine 188, which ispart of the polybasic domain consisting of six contiguous basic aminoacids. Deletion or mutation of the polybasic residues decrease the in-trinsic GTPase activity and result in a loss of the self-stimulatory GAPactivity.

RhoA is a small GTPase of the Ras superfamily. Regulates stress fiberformation in response to growth factor stimulation.

� Heterotrimeric G-Proteins

Heterotrimeric G-Proteins are GTPases composed of α-, β-, and γ-subunits. These GTPases are classically associated with plasma membranereceptors containing seven transmembrane domains (G protein-coupledreceptors [GPCRs]). Receptor activation activates the G-Protein byinducing the exchange of GTP for GDP at a binding site on Gααααα. Gααααα and/orGβγ, then goes on to interact with effector proteins. In mammals, about20 Gααααα subunits (39 to 46 kD), about 5 distinct Gβ (ca. 35 kD) and at least12 Gγ subunits (from 7 to 10 kD) have been identified.

GsαααααL is the long splice variant of the α-subunit of stimulatoryheterotrimeric Gs-proteins. It differs from the short splice variant(GsαααααS) by 15-amino acid insert between the Ras-like domain and the a-helical domain. GsαL activates adenylate cyclase (AC) and possesses alower GDP-affinity than GsαS (cat.# PR-505). These differences in GDP-affinity have important consequences for receptor/G-protein couplingand AC activation.

The mutant GsαααααL-Asn295 is functionally inactive in terms of nucleotidebinding. GTP-binding possesses a highly conserved aspartate residue inthe NKXD motif that is critical for high-affinity interaction with GTP. Inalmost all GTP-binding proteins so far, the D/N-mutation switches base-specifity from guanine to xanthine.

The exchange of Gln227 to Leu227 inhibits the intrinsic GTPase activity,resulting in a constitutively active Gααααα, and increases GDP-affinity of Gααααα.Whereas the exchange of Asp295 to Asn295 leads to inactive mutants ofGα-subunits, an additional Q/L-mutation in the catalytic site (Gln227 →Leu227) rescues protein function and induces xanthine nucleotide-specifity.

In contrast to all other Gααααα-subunits studied so far, the D/N-mutation inGsαS does not influence nucleotide binding activity.

The exchange of Gln212 to Leu212 inhibits the intrinsic GTPase activity,resulting in a constitutively activated Gααααα, and increases GDP-affinity ofGααααα.

Gustducin is a transducin-like heterotrimeric guanine nucleotide-bindingprotein (G-protein) expressed in taste receptor cells (TRCs) of thetongue, stomach and intestinal brush cells. Gustducin was demonstratedto be myristolated and was also palmitoylated in insect cells. Gustducinmediates two responses, i.e. a decrease in cyclic nucleotidemonophosphates via activation of phosphodiesterase 1A by gustducin-αand activation of phospholipase C-β by released Gβγ subunits. Gustducin-α has close structural similarity with the visual G-protein, transducin-α.Gustducin-α reconstituted with the G-protein subunits Gβ1γ2 was preparedfrom Sf9 cells coinfected with gustducin-α and Gβ1γ2-encodingbaculoviruses.

� GEFs (Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factors)

EPAC (exchange protein directly activated by cAMP) is a Rap-specificguanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF). EPAC is activated by the bind-ing of cAMP to a cyclic nucleotide monophosphate-binding domain. N-terminal deletion of the DEP domain (domain that occur in Dishevelled,Egl-10, and Pleckstrin) of EPAC∆DEP does not affect regulation of EPAC-activity but affects membrane localization.

RCC1 (Regulator of Chromosome Condensation, a β-propeller chromatin-bound protein) catalyzes guanine nucleotide exchange of the Ras-relatednuclear protein Ran. RCC1 is the guanine nucleotide exchange factor(GEF) for Ran that induces exchange between the bound GDP and cellularGTP. Genetic studies have suggested that RCC1 may be involved in sens-ing the replication state of DNA and controlling the activation of Cdc2/cyclin B protein kinase through Ran.

Ras-binding domain (RBD) of the human RalGDS, comprises amino acids1 - 97 of wild type.

RalGDS (Ral-guanine nucleotide dissociation stimulator) is the guaninenucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for the Ras-related protein Ral. TheGEF-activity of RalGDS is stimulated by binding of Ras.

� GAPs (GTPase Activation Proteins)

GTPase activating proteins (GAPs) accelerate the GTP hydrolysis reactionby up to 5 orders of magnitude, thus switching “off“ the activatedGTPase and terminating the signaling activity. The malignanttransformation of cells is often linked to oncogenic mutations of Ras thatescape regulation by GAPs.

The NF1 (Neurofibromin) gene product acts as a GTPase activating factor(GAP) on Ras. Inactivating mutations in NF1 lead to neurofibromatosistype 1. NF1- 333 contains residues 1198-1530 of human NF1 comprisingthe functional GAP-related domain that is able to stimulate GTP-hydrolysison wild type Ras.

RapGAP, the GTPase activating protein of Rap, catalyzes the transitionof Rap from GTP-bound to GDP-bound state by hydrolysis of GTP. Rapproteins are GTPases of the Ras superfamily of G proteins opposing theRas activation pathway. RapGap-341 is a catalytic active fragmentcomprising 341 amino acids (residues 75 - 415) of wild type Rap1GAP.RapGAP-341 (R91A) retained more than 50% activity in comparison toRapGAP-341.

Rna1p is the GTPase-activating factor (GAP) of yeast Gsp1p, an orthologof mammalian Ran. Rna1p is located in the cytoplasm throughout the cellcycle and plays a direct role in protein import into the nucleus in S.

cerevisiae and S. pombe.

� GTPase Cycle Effectors

Raf is a member of the serine/threonine proteine kinase family involvedin regulation of cell growth and differentiation and is the most impor-tant effector of Ras. RafRBD (Ras binding domain, amino acids 50-132)mediates interaction with membrane-anchored Ras necessary for acti-vation of the kinase activity of Raf.

Ras-binding domain (RBD) of the human RalGDS, comprises amino acids1 - 97 of wild type. RalGDS (Ral-guanine nucleotide dissociation stimula-tor) is the guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for the Ras-relatedprotein Ral. The GEF-activity of RalGDS is stimulated by binding of Ras.

� GTPase Cycle Effectors

The Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP) is the founding memberof a family of proteins that have emerged as crucial effectors of RhoGTPases and activators of the cytosceletal organizing complex Arp2/3.WASP has been shown to be intimately involved in many pathways thatinfluence the function of the immune system. WASP-121 comprises theamino acids 201-321 of the native WASP sequence. This domain is essen-tial for the binding of Cdc42 to WASP.

EPAC (exchange protein directly activated by cAMP) is a Rap-specificguanine-nucleotide exchange factor (GEF). EPAC is activated by the bind-ing of cAMP to a cyclic nucleotide monophosphate-binding domain. N-terminal deletion of the DEP domain (domain that occur in Dishevelled,Egl-10, and Pleckstrin) of EPAC∆DEP does not affect regulation of EPAC-activity but affects membrane localization.

The amino terminus of Af6 was identified as the Ras-binding site. Addi-tionally to the Ras-binding Af6 also binds Rap. ZO-1, a protein involved inthe formation of tight junctions, also binds to Af6 close to the aminoterminus thereby competing with Ras binding. These data suggest aparticipation of Af6 in the regulation of cell-cell contacts via a Ras-modulated interaction with ZO-1.

RIN2, only expressed in neurons, preferentially interacts with the GTPform of Rab5 rather than the GDP form, although it enhances the guanineexchange reaction on Rab5. Additionally RIN2 interacts with several Rasproteins, it binds the GTP-loaded forms of H-Ras, TC21 and M-Ras.

� GTPase Modifying Enzymes

GGTase-I (Geranylgeranyltransferase-I) catalyzes the transfer of thefarnesyl and geranylgeranyl groups from farnesyl and geranylgeranyl-diphosphate to proteins containing a C-terminal CaaX motif.Farnesyltransferase (FT) and GGTase-I are closely related, sharing acommon a subunit and 30% identity in their β subunits.

GGTase-II (Geranylgeranyltransferase-II) catalyzes the transfer ofgeranylgeranyl moiety onto two C-terminal cysteines of Rab proteins.Composed of an α and β heterodimer (50 and 38 kDa, respectively) andrequires Rab escort protein for its catalytic activity. GGTase-II wasshown to exhibit higher affinity towards geranylgeranyl pyrophosphate(Kd = 8 nM) than farnesyl pyrophosphate (Kd = 60 nM).

FTase catalyzes the transfer of the farnesyl group from farnesyl diphos-phate to proteins containing a C-terminal CaaX motif, where ’C’ is aconserved cysteine that is the site of farnesyl modification, ’a’ is usuallyan aliphatic amino acid, and ’X’ is methionine, serine, glutamine, oralanine.

� GPCRs (G-Protein Coupled Receptors) -Adrenergic Receptors

The human β1-adrenoreceptor (β1AR) is activated by the catecholaminesepinephrine and norepinephrine and couples to the G-protein Gs tomediate adenylate cyclase activation. The β1AR exists as several poly-morphic forms of which the Gly389 and Arg389 variants are among thebest known. There is a controversy whether or not there are functionaldifferences between the two β1AR polymorphisms. β1ARs are mainlyfound in the heart, kidney, and fat tissue. These receptors are involvedin physiological processes such heart contraction, renin release and li-polysis..

β1-Adrenergic receptor-Gly389-GsαL is a fusion protein in which the GsαLN-terminus is linked to the β

1-adrenoceptor (β1AR) C-terminus via a

hexahistidine (His6)-tag. GsαL is the long splice variant of the α-subunitof the heterotrimeric G-protein Gs. The β1AR-Gly389-GsαL fusion pro-tein ensures a defined 1:1 stoichiometry of the receptor and the GsαLsubunit as well as high coupling efficiency. In contrast to β1AR-Arg389-GsαS (cat.# PR-524), α1AR-Gly389-GsαL exhibits hallmarks of high con-stitutive activity, i.e. high efficacy and potency of partial agonists atactivating [35S]GTPαS binding and high efficiency of agonist-free β1AR-Gly389-GsαL at activating AC.

� GPCRs (G-Protein Coupled Receptors) -Histamine Receptors

The histamine H1-receptor (H1R) belongs to the superfamily of seventransmembrane-domain (7TM), G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs).The endogenous agonist for the H1R is histamine, which is both neu-rotransmitter and autacoid. The H1R couples to Gq-proteins to activatephospholipase C. Numerous agonists and antagonists are known. H1Ragonists are divided into three classes, i.e. small agonists derived fromhistamine, histamine derivatives with bulkier aromatic substituents atposition 2 of the imidazole ring and histaprofidens.

The regulator of G-protein signaling 4 (RGS4) efficiently enhances steady-state GTP hydrolysis stimulated by H1R, thus providing a very sensitivemodel system for the pharmacological analysis of the H1R directly at theG-protein level.

The guinea pig H2R (gpH2R) was prepared from Sf9 cells infected withgpH2R-encoding baculovirus. In this system, gpH2R couples to the Gsα-like G-proteins of the insect cells to mediate AC activation.

� Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) isoforms –native proteins, affinity-tagged variantsand associated products

Phosphoinositide 3-kinases (PI3Ks) phosphorylate phosphatidylinositols(PIs) at their 3´-OH position generating lipid second messengers andthereby regulate numerous biological processes including cell growth,differentiation, survival, proliferation, migration and metabolism. Onthe basis of structural similarities and substrate specificity, the PI3Kfamily can be subdivided into three classes termed I, II, and III.

� PI3KαααααPI3Ka plays a specific role in apoptosis in human colon cancer cells.Injection of neutralizing antibodies specific to PI3Kα into adenocarcinomacells induced apoptosis, a response that was reverted by treating cellswith caspase inhibitor. It was also shown that PI3Kα mediatedphosphorylation of the p85a adapter reduces the lipid kinase activity ofthe heterodimer and this gives hints for PI3K-dependent signaling eventsnot requiring production of 3’-phosphorylated phosphoinositides. PI3Kαis a key regulator of the initiation of keratinocyte differentiation. Adecrease in PI3Kα activity results in a loss of keratinocyte adhesion tothe extracellular membrane and the initiation of early phasedifferentiation.

The PI3Kα catalytic and regulatory subunits are coexpressed in Sf9 in-sect cells.

� PI3KβββββThe PI3Kβ isoform can be activated by insulin via the insulin receptor toinitiate a cascade of events that control cell growth and metabolism. Theactivation of PI3Kβ is mediated by the p85 regulatory subunit binding totyrosine phosphorylated insulin receptor substrate (IRS) proteins (e.g.IRS-1 and IRS-2). It was also shown that PI3Kβ is involved in apoptosis inhuman colon carcinoma cells. Injection of neutralizing antibodies spe-cific to p110b in WiDr, HCT116 and CO 115 adenocarcinoma cells inhib-ited de novo DNA synthesis. PI3Kβ is the major PI3K isoform requiredfor apoptotic cell and Fc-g receptor mediated phagocytosis shown forprimary mouse macrophages and the Jurkat human leukemia T cell line.It was shown by several research groups that the catalytic subunit ofPI3Kβ can be activated by Gβγ.

� PI3Kγγγγγ

PI3Kγ is highly expressed in cells of hematopoietic origin. It plays animportant role in dendritic cell (DC) trafficking and in the activation ofspecific immunity. PI3Kγ-/- mice showed a reduced ability to respond tochemokines, and had a selective defect in the number of skin Langerhanscells and in lymph node CD8a-DCs. In macrophages, the chemokineRANTES/CCL5 activates the small GTPase Rac1 and its downstream tar-get PAK2.

The PI3KγD946A protein is a catalytically inactive mutant of PI3Kγ with aD946A mutation in the ATP binding site. This recombinant catalyticallyinactive protein can be used as a negative control in any kind of PI3Kgkinase activity studies.Recombinant full length PI3KγDA mutant carries a

N-terminal GST-Tag and was purified by affinity chromatography.

Distinct regions within the p101 regulatory subunit primary stucture areresponsible for interaction with PI3Kγ and Gβγ. The PI3Kγ binding site isconfined to the N-terminus, whereas binding to Gbγ is mediated by theC-terminus of p101. The PI3Kγ catalytic and regulatory subunits arecoexpressed in Sf9 insect cells. The PI3Kγ catalytic subunit carries aN-terminal His6 affinity Tag, whereas the p101 adaptor subunit carries aN-terminal GST-Tag.

PI3 Kinase FamilySIGNAL TRANSDUCTION

PI3K

� PI3KδδδδδRecently it was shown that the inactivation of PI3Kδ in bone marrow mastcells (BBMCs) leads to defective stem cell factor-mediated proliferation,adhesion and migration of these cells, and to impaired allergen-IgEinduceddegranulation and cytokine release. In neutrophils a role for PI3Kδ inTNFα-induced signalling was demonstrated by a reduction inAktphosphorylation and PDK1 activity upon treatment with the δ-specificinhibitor IC87114.

The PI3Kδ catalytic and regulatory subunits are coexpressed in Sf9 in-sect cells. The catalytic subunit carries a GST-Tag and the heterodimerwas purified by affinity chromatography.

� PI3 Kinase Family - Adaptor Proteins

p85α functions as the regulatory subunit of the class IA PI3-kinase isoformsα, β, and δ. It contains two SH2 domains that bind to tyrosine-phospho-rylated growth factor receptors or substrate adaptor proteins. It alsocontains a BH (breakpoint cluster region homology) domain that showsGAP activity towards the small GTPases Rab4, Rab5, Cdc42, Rac1 and toa lesser extend towards Rab6 and Rab11. It was shown that PI3Kα cata-lytic subunit mediated phosphorylation of the p85α adapter reduces thelipid kinase activity of the heterodimer and this gives hints for PI3K-dependent signaling events not requiring production of 3’-phosphory-lated phosphoinositides. PI3Kα protein kinase activity has been impli-cated in IRS-1 serine phosphorylation in insulin-treated adipocytes andin STAT3 and IRS-1 phosphorylation upon activation of the type 1 IFNreceptor by IFN-α.

N-terminal GST tagged Abl SH3 domain. Abl SH3 domain is the SH3 domainof Abl tyrosine kinase. SH3 domains are known to bind proline rich pep-tides. The Abl SH3 domain has been expressed as a fusion protein withGST allowing expression in E. coli and purification by affinity chroma-tography.

N-terminal GST tagged Hck SH3 domain. Hck SH3 domain is the SH3domain of Hck tyrosine kinase. SH3 domains are known to bind prolinerich peptides. The Hck SH3 domain has been expressed as a fusion pro-tein with GST allowing expression in E. coli and purification by affinitychromatography.

Src (p60c-src) is a 60 kDa cytoplasmic tyrosine kinase with functions inthe regulation of cell division, cell-matrix adhesion, and cell-cellcell ad-hesion. Src family tyrosine kinases participate in signal transduction ofdifferent classes of membrane receptors, including receptor tyrosinekinases and G-protein coupled receptors.

N-terminal GST tagged Src SH3 domain. Src SH3 domain is the SH3 do-main of Src tyrosine kinase. SH3 protein with GST allowing expression inE. coli and purification by affinity chromatography.

Platelet-derived growth factors (PDGF) are potent mitogens for cells ofmesenchymal origin, including smooth muscle cells and glial cells. ThePDGF isoforms AA, BB, AB, CC, and DD are dimeric molecules. They bindtwo receptor molecules simultaneously and dimerize them upon binding.The autophosphorylation induced after dimerization of PDGF receptorsserves two important functions. On one hand, phosphorylation of a con-served tyrosine residue inside the kinase domains (Tyr-849 in the β-receptor and Tyr-857 in the α-receptor) leads to an increase in thecatalytic efficiencies of the kinase. On the other hand,autophosphorylation of tyrosine residues located outside the kinase do-main creates docking sites for signal transduction molecules containingSH2 domains.

� Protein A, B and C Kinases

The principle intracellular target for cAMP in mammalian cells is thecAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). A large number of hormones,neurotransmitters and other signal substances utilize adenosine 3’, 5’cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) as an intracellular second messenger. Therecombinant human PKA, catalytic subunit alpha was expressed in E. coli

and purified by Ni-agarose chromatography. It is suitable for labelingPKA substrates. The sequence based calculated molecular weight is 42.3kDa.

Protein kinase B or Akt (PKB/Akt) is a serine/threonine kinase, which inmammals comprises three highly homologous members known asPKBα(Akt1), PKBβ(Akt2), and PKBγ(Akt3). PKB/Akt is activated in cellsexposed to diverse stimuli such as hormones, growth factors, and extra-cellular matrix components. The Thr-308 residue in the kinase domainand Ser-473 residue in the tail domain of Akt1 need to be phosphorylatedby PDK1 and PDK2, respectively, for its maximal activation. The activa-tion mechanism remains to be fully characterised but occurs downstreamof PI-3K. Akt1 contains a region homologous to a pleckstrin domain foundin multiple signaling molecules and is stimulated by a number of receptortyrosine kinases, including receptors for IGF, NGF, PDGF, VEGF, angio-tensin, and insulin, by the action of PI 3-kinase. The recombinant humanAkt1 kinase (PKBα) is expressed in Sf9 insect cells and purified by Ni-NTAagarose chromatography. It is suitable for labeling Akt1 kinase substrates.The sequence based calculated molecular weight is 59.05 kDa.

� Serine/Threonine Kinases

MKK6 is one of the major specific activators of p38. MAP kinase kinases(MAPKKs) MKK3 and MKK6 are the primary regulators of p38 phosphory-lation and activation. The MKK6/p38 pathway is well documented in theregulation of apoptosis. The p38 mitogen-activated protein (MAP) ki-nase signal transduction pathway regulates the production of interleukin-1 and tumor necrosis factor-alpha. The recombinant human MKK6 wasexpressed in E. coli and purified by glutathione sepharose chromatogra-phy.

MAP (mitogen-activated protein) kinases are activated by a family ofdual specificity kinases called MEKs (MAP kinase/Erk Kinase). MEK1 canbe activated by Raf by phosphorylation on serine 218 and serine 222.Mutation of these sites to acidic residues leads to constitutively activeMEK1 in some cases. Given the central role of the ERK/mitogen-activatedprotein kinase pathway in mediating growth-promoting signals for adiverse group of upstream stimuli, inhibitors of MEK, as a key centralmediator, could have significant clinical benefit in the treatment ofbreast and other cancers. The human recombinant MEK1, activated bytwo amino acid exchanges (S218D, S222D), was expressed in E. coli andpurified by gluthatione sepharose and gelfiltration. It is suitable forlabeling MEK1 substrates and for activation of ERK1 and ERK2. The mo-lecular weight of the protein is 69.7 kDa.

PhosphatasesSIGNAL TRANSDUCTION

Phosphatases

� Recombinant Phosphatases

The dual specific Cdc25A (Cell division cycle) phosphatase regulates cellcycle progression, has oncogenic and anti-apoptotic activity, and isoverexpressed in many human tumors.

Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase type IVA, member 3, isoform 1; wholesequence. The proteins of regenerating liver (PRL-1, -2, and -3) areclosely related protein tyrosine phosphatases (PTPs) having high se-quence similarities to several dual-specificity PTPs. Elevated expressionlevels of PRL-3 have been reported in colon cancer cells that have metas-tasized to liver.

PTEN is one of the most frequently mutated tumor suppressors in humancancer. PTEN is a dual-specificity phosphatase with both protein phos-phatase and lipid phosphatase activity.

The best described substrate of PTEN is phosphatidylinositol (3,4,5)-tris-phosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3). PTEN removes the phosphate inPtdIns(3,4,5)P3 to generate PtdIns(4,5)P2 and serves to counter-bal-ance the effects of PI3 Kinase. PTEN regulate the signaling pathway ofPI3 Kinases by preventing localisation of proteins with pleckstrin homol-ogy domains to the cell membrane. The molecular weight is about 48 kDa.

PTP 1B is the prototype non-transmembrane protein tyrosine phos-phatase. It is a ubiquitous protein that was originally identified in humanplacenta. This highly active enzyme is well suited for the study of ty-rosine phosphatase kinetics and substrate specificity, as well as for thescreening of inhibitors.

PTP-SL (PTPBR7) is a cytosolic membrane-associated enzyme with asingle catalytic domain. PTP-SL is a major regulator of extracellularsignal-regulated kinase ERK1/2 and p38. Interaction between PTP-SL andERK1/2 and p38 is strictly dependent on a kinase interaction motif (KIM)consisting of 16 amino acid residues.

PR-319 is is the catalytically inactive form of PTP-SL-ex, which wasobtained by site-directed mutagenesis of the active site cysteine toserine.

The intracellular region of PTPµ contains three domains: thejuxtamembrane (JM, aa 765-923) and two phosphatase domains (D1 andD2). Only the D1 domain is catalytically active.

Protein Tyrosin Phosphatase, cytoplasmic region, containing catalyticdomain D1 C-terminally linked to the non-catalytic domain D2. Molecularweight is 72.95 kDa.

SHP-1 is a protein-tyrosine phosphatase with tandem SH2 domains. It isa negative regulator of signaling of various receptors including the eryth-ropoietin receptor, the IL-3 receptor, c-Kit, the CSF-1 receptor, the B-cell receptor and c-Ros.

The mammalian dual-specificity protein-tyrosine phosphatase VHR (forVH1-related) has been identified as a novel regulator of extracellularregulated kinases (ERKs). Vaccinia Virus VH1-related Phosphatase (VHR),also known as Dual-Specificity Phosphatase 3 (DUSP3), removes phos-phate groups from tyrosine, serine, and threonine residues. It belongsto a family of phosphatases that selectively dephosphorylate MAP ki-nases. VHR has been shown to act as a phosphatase for several membersof the MAP kinase family including ERK1, ERK2, and JNK. It is a targetfor the ZAP-70 kinase, and phosphorylation of VHR at tyrosine 138 leadsto a downregulation of ERK2 activity.

Protein Tyrosine Phosphatase-Basophil-like (PTP-BL)is a large non-receptor type protein tyrosine phosphatase caracterized by the presenceof a extreme N-terminal KIND domain (kinase noncatalytic C-lobe domain),a N-terminal FERM domain (four point one, ezrin, radixin, moesin homologydomain), five PDZ (postsynaptic density protein-95, discs large, zonulaoccludens) regions and a C-terminal catalytically active domain.

� Phosphatase Assay Kit

Protein phosphatases consist of three general families with differentsubstrate specificities towards phospho-seryl/threonyl, -tyrosyl resi-dues, or both. This kit provides a simple means to measure phosphataseactivity by using pNPP as a general substrate of phosphatases. In a firststep, the enzyme dephosphorylates its substrate pNPP. In a second step,the phenolic OH-group is deprotonated under alkaline conditions result-ing in p-nitrophenolate with a strong absorption at 405 nm (yellow).

Gene Synthesis, Library constructionCUSTOM SERVICES

Genomic Services

� Construction of a Genomic DNA Lambda library

We can clone large inserts ranging in size from 9-23 kb into a lamdbavector. The Lambda DASH II Vector (Stratagene) will be used for ge-nomic lambda library construction. We do not guarantee average insertsize but will attempt to obtain desired range of average insert size.Insert size can vary from about 9-23Kb, as specified in manufactures’kit. We guarantee the minimum requested 1,000,000 clones.

Genomic library preparation highlights:

• DNA purification (>100kb in average).

• DNA random shearing by enzymatic methods.

• Size fractionation.

• Sticky-end ligation to the vector.

• Packaging and stock preparation.

• Customer will receive non-amplified phage stocks.

• Recombinant clones will be up to about 1 million.

� Construction of a Lambda cDNA library

cDNA libraries are constructed using our proprietary technology, whichfeatures full-length enriched, high quality size-fractionated, anddirectionally cloned cDNA. We do not guarantee average insert size butwill attempt to obtain desired range of average insert size. We guaran-tee the minimum requested 1,000,000 clones.

cDNA library preparation highlights:

• Total and polyA RNA isolation.

• 1st strand cDNA synthesis: 5’ adaptor primers will be added to

full-length cDNAs during this step; an oligo-dT or a random

primer based on the need of customer will be used.

• 2nd strand cDNA synthesis by primer extension.

• Double stranded cDNAs will be amplified using low cycling PCR if

necessary (optional).

• Size fractionation (normally recombinant clones will contain an

average insert size of at least 1kb).

• Ligation to phage vector.

• Packaging.

• Quality control (average insert size and non-insert clone

determination, number and percentage of recombinants).

• Customer will receive non-amplified cDNA stocks.

• Recombinant clones will be up to about 1 million for lambda.

Library amplification is available, however not included in this

offer.

� Plasmid DNA library (shotgun)

A modified pBluescript vector will be used. We do not guaranteeaverage insert size but will attempt to obtain desired range of averageinsert size. We guarantee the minimum requested 500,000 clones.

Service highlights:

• DNA purification (>100kb in average).

• DNA random shearing by chemical methods.

• Size fractionation.

• Blunt-end ligation to the vector.

• Recombinant clones will be up to about 500,000.

Clone array is optional.

� Customized Gene Synthesis

We offer custom gene synthesis service for a very economical prices.Turnaround time is dependent on sequence length. Progress report willbe issued at different stages. Confidentiality will be assured through anon-disclosure agreement (if necessary).

The following are included:

• Artificial gene synthesis;

• Expression optimization; Codon optimization (if necessary);

• Insertion of gene into standard plasmid or customer-

provided vector;

• Double stranded DNA sequencing data with chromatogram;

• The final product (10µg) can be delivered as a vector DNA

construct (vector map included) and/or as a lyophilized

clone mixture

• 100% fidelity

• Supplied as lyophilized plasmid

• E.coli culture transformed and stab provided at minimal

cost

••••• Expression in E.coli, Pichia pastoris, Baculovirus

� BAC genomic library

BAC libraries are essential elements in doing large-scale genome re-search such as genome sequencing, physical maps, and gene cloning.Bacterial artificial chromosomes (BAC) cloning technology was devel-oped in early 1990s and quickly gained popularity. This technology wasused in applications for genomic analysis that included large-scale physi-cal mapping and genomic sequencing although this technology was devel-oped much later than Yeast Artificial Chromosome (YAC) and cosmidcloning technologies.

• We guarantee coverage.

• We perform HMW DNA extraction ourselves.

• We have experience with plant, fungal, bacterial and animal

libraries.

• We have extensive experience with GC-rich organisms and

marine bacteria.

• Our arrayed BAC libraries are shipped in bar-coded

microplates.

• Shipment temperature of non-arrayed libraries is always

monitored using a BLUE FLAG Temperature Data logger.

• We provide technical support.

A few libraries constructed in the past include:

We have extensive experience in custom-synthesizing biological stains,fluorescent and luminescent proves, peptides, nucleotides, carbohydratesand other biological molecules. With our state-of the art synthetic andanalytical instruments and GMP facilities, you can be assured that youwould get high quality products from us.

We offer custom conjugations for labeling your peptides, antibodies,proteins, nucleotides and nucleic acids with fluorescent dyes, lumines-cent probes, biotin, enzymes or other tagging molecules.

Custom Synthesis of Amino Acids and Peptides

We routinely perform difficult peptide synthesis such as synthesis oflong peptides (>50-mers), peptides containing unusual modifications andcyclic peptides. In addition, we can also do large-scale synthesis (>100g). Optimized Fmoc and Boc methodologies are employed in house toobtain high quality peptides. Although most of the peptides are purifiedby HPLC using reverse phase C

4 and C

18 columns, alternative purification

methods (e.g. ion exchange and gel filtration chromatography) are usedto purify some unique peptides. All custom peptides are accompaniedwith MS and HPLC analyses. Additional analytical data (e.g., sequencing,amino acid analysis) are available upon request.

We can synthesize modified peptides such as:

••••• DNA-peptide conjugates

••••• Drug-peptide conjugates

••••• Glycopeptides

••••• Lipopeptides

••••• Phosphopeptides

••••• Cyclic peptides (N -> C)

••••• Peptides with disulfide bonds

••••• Pegylated peptides

••••• Biotinylated peptides

••••• MAPS peptides

••••• Dye-labeled peptides:

••••• Peptides with C-terminal modification:

••••• Peptides with reduced amide bond

••••• Peptides labeled with C13 or N15

••••• Peptide libraries

Quantity range from 5mg to 100 mgPurity levels range from Crude to >98%Please enquire for bulk pricing

� DHL™ Cell Cytotoxicity Assay Kit *Fluorimetric*

The damage of cell membrane leads to the release of cytoplasmic enzymes.The measurement of released cytoplasmic lactate dehydrogenase (LDH)is a well-accepted assay to estimate cell membrane integrity and quantifycytotoxicity. The EnzoLyte™ Cell Cytotoxicity Assay Kit uses resazurin asa sensitive fluorogenic indicator (Ex/Em=560 nm/590 nm upon converted)to measure LDH activity. The assay can be performed in a mixed populationof damaged and viable cells, but it only measures the LDH released fromdamaged cells. The cytoplasmic LDH in living cells produces little signalsunder assay condition. The fluorescent signal is proportional to the numberof damaged cells (up to 2.5X104 cell, r2>0.95) with the detection limitreaching 100 dead cells.

The Cambio ‘Paint Box’ contains 3 tests for each chromosome presentedin one convenient palette, which is particularly useful for researchersneeding to test for each chromosome. STAR*FISH Paint Boxes are sup-plied in a ready-to-use format (45µl per vial).

� Multicolour FISH (M-FISH)

Multicolour FISH (M-FISH) allows the simultaneous visualisation of all hu-man chromosomes in a different colour and consequently allows the ex-amination of the human genome in a single hybridisation. The technologyis especially useful when specimen material is limited and numerous com-plex chromosomal rearrangements are involved. SKY and M-FISH are thetwo systems used to analyse multicoloured chromosomes and the systemsdiffer only in the way they capture and analyse the images. The multicolourprobe set consists of a mixture of combinatorially labelled chromosome-specific paints of all human chromosomes. These paints are derivedfrom DOP-PCR-amplified DNA from FACS-sorted chromosomes.

� Human Rainbow*FISH Probes

The human Rainbow*FISH probes visualise 6 chromosomes per set (1-6, 7-12, 13-18 and 16-Y). Covering the entire genome in just four experi-ments, the Rainbow*FISH probes are quick and easy to use. The probesutilise biotin, FITC and Cy3, so there is no need to buy new filters orsoftware. The probes come ready to use with hybridisation buffer.

� STAR*FISH Human Chromosome-SpecificArm Probes

AL Technologies’ probes for the ‘p’ or ‘q’ arm of each chromosome arelabelled with either biotin or digoxigenin (DIG). Please note that due tocross-hybridisation only the ‘q’ arm is available for chromosomes 13,14, 15, 21 and 22.

� STAR*FISH Human Chromosome-SpecificBand Probes

These specific band and oncogene probes are constructed frommicrodissected normal human metaphase chromosome DNA that has beendirectly amplified by PCR using a degenerate primer. The probes areavailable labelled with either biotin or digoxigenin (DIG).

� STAR*FISH Human Chromosome-Y-Specific Probes

Chromosome Y Euchromatic Probe – Biotin Labelled

This probe is an unpublished cosmid clone (LOR2.6, 9, Taylor & Wolfe),which can be used to detect the euchromatic portion of the Y chromo-some but not the pseudoautosomal region at the distal tip of Yp (and Xp)and not the distal Yq heterochromatin. It gives no signal elsewhere on thegenome. Use detection kit numbers 1066-K, 1082-KT, 1089-KB, 1090-KD,1043-KB or 1596-KC with this product.

Chromosome Y Heterochromatic Region Probe

To supplement our Chromosome Y Euchromatic probe and the whole chro-mosome Y paints, which do not paint heterochromatin, we also providesa Yqh-specific probe. Available with biotin, FITC or Cy3 labelling, it canbe used in conjunction with other STARHFISH paints and probes, andother STAR*FISH detection kits and reagents.

� Harlequin*FISH Paints

Harlequin*FISH paints are derived from the application of chromosomepainting to comparisons of the genetics of a wide variety of species. This‘cross-species colour banding’ was developed to be applied to the analy-sis of the human genome. Created from two closely related gibbon spe-cies, the probes hybridise to different loci in the human genome.

Benefits:

• Whole genome analysis in a single multicolour FISH assay

• Combinatorial labelling generates 7 colours

• Unique ‘bar code’ for each chromosome

• Characterise gross and cryptic genomic rearrangements

• Detect inter-chromosomal translocations

• Interpret marker chromosomes and samples with poor

morphology

• Provide rapid and precise characterisations of leukaemias

• Detect and classify cancers

• Monitor therapeutic response

• Accessible, robust FISH tool

� STAR*FISH Primed In Situ Synthesis

Telomeric PRINS Kit

STAR*FISH PRINS (PRimed IN situ Synthesis) is a rapid and sensitivemethod of detecting sequences of DNA without requiring lengthy in situhybridisation protocols. The technique is basically a single-cycle PCRreaction, requiring a single specific primer and labelled dUTP/dNTPsolution. The key advantages of this method of in situ detection are theintensity and clarity of the signal and the speed of the protocol. Thesignal produced is intense and localised due to the fact that individualunincorporated nucleotides do not contribute significantly to background,and carefully chosen primers eliminate false signal emerging from otherloci. With its speedy protocol, results can be obtained in under 1 hour (alot faster than conventional FISH). Also, PCR requires few, if any, toxicreagents, unlike the need for formamide in FISH.

� STAR*FISH Mouse Whole Chromosome-SpecificProbes

STAR*FISH Mouse Whole Chromosome-Specific paint systems are pre-pared from PCR-amplified DNA obtained from FACS-sorted chromosomes.Mouse paints are now being used to develop model systems for studies ingenetics, mutagenesis, developmental cancer biology, and as human sur-rogates in studying the effects of genotoxic agents. Available in thisrange are whole chromosome paints for use in the detection of transloca-tion and trisomy in mice. Paints are available for chromosomes 1–19, Xand Y.

Mouse probes are available labelled with biotin, FITC or Cyanine 3, andare supplied with hybridisation buffer in packs of 10 and 20 tests. Unlessotherwise requested, mouse probes are supplied in the ‘ready-to-use’format.

� STAR*FISH Mouse Paint Boxes

In addition to our popular human paint boxes, we also offers 3 tests ofeach mouse whole chromosome paint in one convenient palette. Thisproduct was specifically designed for researchers needing to test foreach chromosome, and is also a useful resource when initialising a newpainting assay or service

� STAR*FISH Mouse Pan-Centromeric Probes

To complement our human pan-centromerics, ourrange includes mousepan centromeric probes. Manufactured and quality controlled to thesame high standards as our human probes, the mouse pan-centromericsare ideal for the detection of chromosome number aberrations in thisexperimental species.

FISH PaintsCYTOGENETICS

� Mouse Rainbow*FISH Probes

The mouse Rainbow*FISH probes visualise 7 chromosomes per set (1-7, 8-14 and 15-Y). Covering the entire genome in just three experiments, theRainbowHFISH probes are quick and easy to use. The probes utilisebiotin, FITC and Cy3, so there is no need to buy new filters or software.

� X-Y FISH Bovine Sex Test Kit

X and Y chromosome paints were developed from sorted yak chromo-somes for sexing cattle spermatozoa. The procedure was evaluated usingthe Beltsville sperm sexing technology, which separates spermatozoa byflow-cytometry into X- and Y-bearing fractions. Using FISH, the methodis a simple, reliable and robust procedure for assessing the effective-ness of any separation technique of bovine X and Y spermatozoa.

Paints can also be used for interphase-FISH.

� Bovine Translocation (1;29) FISH Kit

The 1;29 balanced chromosome translocation is recognised to be themost common chromosome aberration in cattle causing reduced fertil-ity. The t(1;29) abnormality can be identified or excluded by conven-tional chromosome analysis, which is used widely as a screening test.

FISH analysis offers the advantage of identifying the translocation ininterphase nuclei and suboptimal chromosome preparations. It providesa rapid and unequivocal diagnosis.

� STAR*FISH Rat 12/y PaintsSTAR*FISH Pig x/y Paints

These highly-specific paints are suitable for a wide range of applica-tions. As with all our paints, they come with the Cambio guarantee ofquality, and the full technical support of the University of CambridgeMolecular Cytogenetics Laboratory.

Genome Walking- APA™TechnologyNEW TECHNOLOGIES

APA Gene Technology

� Asymmetrical PCR Amplification (APA™) technology

Asymmetrical PCR amplification (APA™) represents a new generation of PCR technology developed by Bio S&T (U.S. patent pending).

PCR technology is widely used in molecular biology for DNA cloning, genomic typing and sequencing. It has also been applied in medical and pharmaceu-tical research, clinical diagnosis and human DNA fingerprinting. A variety of PCR permutations have been developed since its conception. However, acommon limitation among these variations is the need to know the DNA sequences flanking the region of interest. Thus, DNA amplification has been limited totemplates with known sequences. APA™ is designed specifically to overcome this limitation.APA™ technology is capable of selectively or randomly amplifying any unknown DNA sequences. The APA™ procedure includes two steps (see figure 1):

In step 1, particular primer sets named degenerated random tagging (DRT) primers

are involved in the reaction. Each DRT primer consists of three components respec-

tively, each containing a 4-6 nucleotide arbitrary sequence at the 3’ end, a bi-nucle-

otide degenerated sequence and a tagging primer binding sequence. The functions of

the DRT primers are to randomly bind denatured DNA templates, lead single strand

DNA amplification, and provide a tagging primer binding position in the 5’ region. The

annealing temperature during this step ranges from 35-42oC with an optimum of 37oC

for many species. In step 2 of the APA™ procedure, a specific primer and tagging

primer are used in a reaction performed at a higher annealing temperature (higher

than 57oC).

One of the most effective uses of APA™ Technology is gap filling in genome integration.

Conventional gap filling is often laborious, time consuming and ineffective given that

too much DNA template is utilized in each reaction. Through APA™ Technology the

sequencing process to walk the BAC clones is extremely simple and reliable with the

additional advantage that only a minute amount of DNA is needed for the reaction.

Usually, BAC End sequencing is usually limited by two factors: 1) a large amount of DNA,

usually more than 5 ug is needed for each reaction 2) the BAC vector is typically a single

copy vector, making it hard to extract large amounts of DNA from a BAC clone. Our

revolutionary APA™ Technology has overcome these limitations. With this absolutely

fresh approach, only 2-5 ng of template DNA are needed for each reaction, almost 1000

times less than required by the conventional procedure.

� APAgene™ Genome Walking Kit

Can be used for: gap filling, localized cloning of genomic DNA, isolating promoter and regulatory sequences corresponding to cloned cDNAs, 5’ and 3’RACE of first-strand cDNAs, and identifying intron/exon junctions.

� APAgene™ Locator Kit

Can be used for: identifying transgene/genomic DNA junctions, bi-directional sequence extension of sequence-tagged sites (STSs) and expressedsequence tags (ESTs), identifying gene traps and transposon-insertion locations.

� APAgene™ BAC End Amplification Kit

Can be used for: insert-end amplification of large clones such as P1, YAC and BAC as well as localized sub-cloning of large clones such as P1, YAC andBAC.

A Novel Cloning Vector - pLivSelect®Cloning TechnologyNEW TECHNOLOGIES

Cloning Vector

� pLivSelect®Cloning Technology

pLivSelect® technology (patent pending No. 2,335,412) is the latest tech-nology in DNA cloning. Compared with conventional DNA cloning technolo-gies, which depend on blue/white selection for recombinants, pLivSelect®

is a revolution in DNA cloning.

In conventional cloning technologies, the lac operon contains a partiallacZ sequence coding for the N-terminal portion of the b-galactosidasegene. The C-terminal portion is contributed by the host via a-comple-mentation. If a DNA insert is not introduced into the lacZ gene, anenzymatically active b-galactosidase will be generated via the a-comple-mentation of the N-terminal portion with the C-terminal portion con-tributed by the host strain. The functional b-galactosidase will thencleave X-gal resulting in an insoluble blue substance forming blue colo-nies. If a DNA insert is introduced into the lacZ gene, transcription ofthe N-terminal portion of the b-galactosidase will be interrupted, pre-venting a-complementation and consequently cleavage of X-gal. The re-sulting colonies are colorless.

Our revolutionary pLivSelect® cloning vector provides an innovativedirect selection system for recombinant identification. The key partof this innovative cloning system comprises:

• A lacI repressor sequence that has been engineered to

contain multiple cloning sites (MCS);

• A lac-ABR operon where the antibiotic resistant gene is

placed under the regulation of the lac operon.

If there is no DNA insertion in the MCS area of the lacI sequence, lacI hasnormal repressor function that will inhibit lac promoter activity for b-lactamase synthesis. Therefore, cells that harbor the non-recombinantvector cannot survive on agar plates containing chloramphenicol. In con-trast, if a DNA insert has been introduced into the MCS region of the lacI

sequence, the chlorampehnicol resistance gene will be normally expressedowing to the absence of lacI repressor activity. Cells that contain a vec-tor carrying an exogenous DNA fragment will survive on agar plates con-taining the antibiotic. pLivSelect® is thus a direct antibiotic-based se-lection system for recombinant identification. pLivSelect®-PCR CloningKits can be applied for cloning PCR products amplified using either Taqor Pfu DNA polymerases (those which generate either sticky or bluntends).

Figure 1: PLivSelect Vector Map

� pLivSelect® cloning vector

The pLivSelect®-PCR vector is derived from the pLivSelect®-I vector(Cat#BC101). The XbaI site in the MCS region of the original vector hasbeen replaced by a PmlI site. Therefore, the pLivSelect®-PCR vectorcontains two PmlI sites flanking the PCR insertion site (HpaI) so that thePCR insert can easily be excised from the vector through a single PmlIdigestion. The pLivSelect®-PCR vector provided in the pLivSelect®-PCRCloning Kit has been linearized using Hpa and processed through a uniqueprocedure so that the DNA vector can be used to clone all types of PCRproducts. Therefore, pLivSelect®-PCR Cloning Kits can be applied forcloning PCR products amplified using either Taq or Pfu DNA polymerases(those which generate either sticky or blunt ends).

Choose between pLivSelect®-II Cloning Kit A, B or C depending uponthe restriction sites into which you would like to clone your gene.

The following are the contents of pLivSelect®-II Cloning Kit A, Band C:

• Linearized and dephosphorylated pLivSelect-II vector DNA,100 ng/µl

• T4 DNA ligase, 5 U/µl

• 10X T4 ligase buffer

• 100 ng of pLivSelect.-II vector DNA

• T4 ligase buffer components

• T4 DNA ligase

• E. coli DH10B agar stock

� pLivSelect®-II-PCR Cloning Kit L

(With and Without competent cells) Optimized to enhance blunt-endligation (all types of PCR products with blunt ends or 3‘-A overhangsticky ends can be cloned with high efficiency).

� pLivSelect®-II-PCR Cloning Kit

Optimized to enhance blunt-end ligation (all types of PCR products withblunt ends or 3‘-A overhang sticky ends can be cloned with high effi-ciency).

Transformation

All E. coli strains that do not express the lac repressor (lacI or lacI q)

may be used for transformation. If you use a strain that expresses thelac repressor, your transformants WILL NOT grow on agar plates con-taining chloramphenicol.

A Novel Eukaryotic Expression System-LEXSYNEW TECHNOLOGIES

Eucaryotic Expression System

� Leishmania Expression System

The Leishmania Expression System represents the combination of easy handling known from bacterial expression systems with the potential of aneukaryotic protein expression/folding/ modification system. The protozoan host Leishmania tarentolae was isolated from lizard and is non-humanpathogenic (Biosafety level 1).

For high level expression target genes are supplied with specific splicing signals and integrated into a strongly transcribed chromosomal site ormaintained episomally. The expression constructs are made in E. coli and introduced into L. tarentolae by electroporation.

Up to four selection markers can be used simultaneously for coexpression of multisubunit proteins in one strain or expression enhancement.General and secretory expression vectors are available.

The selected recombinant strains can be cultivated as static or agitated cultures and grow to high cell densities in standard bacteriological mediawithout sera. The cells can be easily lysed by sonication or detergents.

One main advantage of the Leishmania Expression System is the potential for mammalian-type posttranslational modification of heterologoustarget proteins, such as glycosylation, phosphorylation, prenylation etc.

• Amplification of target gene from cDNA as Bgl II / Nco I / Xho I x Xho I / Pac I / Not I compatible cassette

• Insertion of target gene into Leishmania expression vector

• Transfection of Leishmania tarentolae host strain by electroporation

• Selection of recombinant strains with Nourseothricin/Hygromycin/Bleomycin/Neomycin

• Confirmation of genetic structure of recombinant strain by diagnostic PCR

• Cultivation of expression strain and evaluation of expression level of target protein

• Purification and characterization of target protein

Fig. 1 : The pF4X1.4 general expression plasmid family is availablewith sat, hyg, ble or neo marker genes for selection with Nourseothricin,Hygromycin B, Bleomycin or Neomycin. Instead of a poly-linker, thetarget gene replaces a stuffer fragment, allowing control for properrestriction. The Nco I site overlaps the ATG of the target gene. 5’ int and3’ int are regions for homologous recombination into the host chromo-some following linearization of the expression plasmid with Swa I; utr1,utr2 and utr3 are optimized gene flanking non-translated regions pro-viding the splicing signals for posttranscriptional mRNA processing forexpression of target and marker genes in L. tarentolae.

Figure 2: The pSP1.4sat secretory expression plasmid family allowsthe use of a signal peptide which has proven to function for extracellularsecretion and correct processing in L. tarentolae. Signal peptide codingregions from human epo gene or from L. tarentolae gp63 gene are avail-able. Instead of a polylinker, the mature part of the target gene replacesa stuffer fragment, allowing control for proper restriction. The Kas Isite overlaps the signal peptide cleavage site. 5' int and 3' int are regionsfor homologous recombination into the host chromosome following linear-ization of the expression plasmid with Swa I. For secretory expressionwith the homologous signal peptide of the target protein the pF4X1.4general expression plasmid family (Fig. 1) can be used.
