General description

The pFLAG-CMV-5.1 Expression Vector is a 4.7 kb derivative of the pCMV5 transient expression vector, used for establishing transient intracellular expression of C-terminal FLAG® fusion proteins in mammalian cells.

pFLAG-CMV-5.1 is a shuttle vector for E. coli and mammalian cells. Efficiency of replication and genomic integration is optimal when using an SV40 T antigenexpressing host.

The pFLAG-CMV-5b-BAP Control Plasmid is a 6.0 kb derivative of the pCMV5 transient expression vector for intracellular expression of C-terminal FLAG bacterial alkaline phosphatase fusion protein in mammalian cells.

Vector Maps and Sequences

Application

pFLAG-CMV-5.1 Expression Vector is suitable for transient or stable expression and secretion of N-terminal FLAG®-tagged fusion proteins in mammalian cells.

Components

  • pFLAG-CMV-5.1 Expression Vector 20 μg (E7901) is supplied as 0.5 mg/ml in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0) with 1 mM EDTA.
  • pFLAG-CMV-5b-BAP Control Plasmid 20 μg (P5225) is supplied as 0.5 mg/ml in 10 mM Tris-HCl (pH 8.0) with 1 mM EDTA.

Principle

The promoter-regulatory region of the human cytomegalovirus drives transcription of FLAG®-fusion constructs. The multiple cloning region of the pFLAG-CMV-5.1 vector is not preceded by a translational initiation signal. A translational start sequence must be included with the insert DNA. The multiple cloning region of the pFLAG-CMV-5.1 vector is compatible with other CMV vectors.

The initiation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) kinase activity proceeds via an asymmetric dimerization mechanism in which a "donor" tyrosine kinase domain (TKD) contacts an "acceptor" TKD, leading to its activation. In the context of a ligand-induced dimer, identical
