Comments
Restriction digests of the clone give the following sizes (kb): SalI--12.0, 9.0, 8.0 doublet, 3.65; XhoI--41, 9.4; ClaI--35, 15; HindIII--23, 12, 5.5, 4.4; SalI/XhoI--9.0, 8.0, 7.5, 6.2, 5.5, 4.9, 3.35.
IMPORTANT: To prevent amplification of a rearranged and/or deleted cosmid, we recommend streaking on LB + amp plates at 30C and picking small colonies for liquid culture.
Insert includes the entire coding sequence as well as 5' and 3' flanking sequences on a 22 kb HpaI fragment. Promoter is either within or flanking the 5' end of the ApaI/XhoI fragment. Gene spans about 11 kb.
