DNA: cDNA Insert lengths(kb): 0.4600000083446503 Tissue: HTLV II-associated leukemia cell line H38 Gene product: cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4(cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated serine esterase 4) [CTLA4] Alleles: A1, A2, A3, A4, A5, A6, A7, A8, A9, A10, A11, A12, A13, A14, A15, A16, A17 Target Gene: cytotoxic T-lymphocyte-associated protein 4 - IgCgamma1 chimera |
| Comments |
Restriction digests of the clone give the following sizes (kb): HindIII/XbaI--4.0, 1.2; HindIII--5.2; XbaI--5.2. Restriction digests of the clone give the following sizes (kb): HindIII--5.2; HindIII/XbaI--4.0, 1.2; PstI--5.2; XbaI--5.2; XhoI--5.2. The Ig hinge cysteines were mutated to serine residues during construction to prevent intrachain disulfide bonding. Expresses a soluble derivative of CTLA4, consisting of the oncostatin M signal sequence and partial exon 2 sequence, the extracellular portion of CTLA4, and the hinge, CH2 and CH3 portions of Ig Cgamma1. A stable CHO transfectant expressing this construct is available as CRL-10762. |
