  • Title: A series of Dictyostelium expression vectors for recombination cloning.
    Author: Thomason PA, Brazill DT, Cox EC.
    Journal: Plasmid; 2006 Nov; 56(3):145-52. PubMed ID: 16765443.
    Abstract:
    We describe a series of Dictyostelium expression vectors for recombination cloning using the Gateway technology. DNA fragments generated by high fidelity polymerase chain reaction are cloned by topoisomerase-mediated ligation, then recombined into any of several Dictyostelium expression vectors using phage lambda LR recombinase. No restriction enzymes are used in this procedure. Coding regions can be expressed from their own promoters, or from a strong actin 15 promoter as a native protein, or with an amino or carboxyl-terminal GFP fusion. Gene promoters of interest can be analyzed by controlled expression of GFP and beta-galactosidase. These vectors allow for rapid and simple characterization of novel DNA, and are ideal for high-throughput studies.
