pgh19 Xenopus expression vector - Need sequence (Feb/08/2007 )
Hello,
I am trying to find a vector map/sequence for pgh19, a xenopus expression plasmid generated from Yale i believe. The insert that i am trying to cut out only differs
by a hundred base pairs from the cut plasmid. Therefore i need to know the vector sequence so i can find a unique restriction enzyme that will cut the plasmid and not the insert, making the plasmid run at a significantly lower Molecular weight than the insert of interest. Which will allow me to differentiate the the pieces on a gel.
Thanks
Hi, as this isn't a commercial vector you may find it hard to get the sequence. There are several references to this plasmid in published papers, I think your best bet is to contact the authors of some of these papers and see if they will help you or point you in the right direction.
Good luck ![]()
Bumping an old topic, but since I use pGH19 quite often myself, I would still like to contribute for future queries. pGH19 is indeed generated at Yale. I have a sequence, but I don't know if I can just go ahead and post it here. I am more then willing to PM it to anyone who asks for it. Someone made a vector map that I found online. It's published in a dissertation by someone named Felix Knauf, from Germany. It's not a very detailed vector map, but it seems to be the correct one. You can find it here.
I am currently in the process of mapping the sequence and creating a more accurate vector map myself.
Put the sequence in Genbank, then everyone can find it. I find it very annoying that more people don't routinely do this. It's not like it costs money or something.
