Tool Details
*FOR RESEARCH USE ONLY (for other uses, please contact the licensing team)
- Tool name: pBABE-hygro Vector
- Research fields: Genetics
- Total vector size: 5558
- Backbone size without insert: 5558
- Bacterial resistance: Ampicillin
- Selectable markers: Hygromycin
- Description: A high-titer retroviral expression vector for stable gene expression in mammalian cells. Features hygromycin resistance for mammalian cell selection. Expression is driven by the Mo MuLV LTR promoter.
- Additional notes: The pBABE vectors prove useful in experiments where highest frequencies of gene transfer, or concomitant expression of several different genes within a single cell are required with minimal risk of helper virus contamination.
Handling
- Shipping conditions: Provided as 50-100ng cloning grade DNA on Whatman filter paper
- Plasmid amplification details: DH5alpha 37° C
- Plasmid copy number: High copy
