  • Title: An autonomously propagating luciferase-encoding vector for Dictyostelium discoideum.
    Author: Yin Y, Williamson BD, Rutherford CL.
    Journal: Gene; 1994 Dec 15; 150(2):293-8. PubMed ID: 7821794.
    Abstract:
    We have constructed a luc reporter vector for Dictyostelium discoideum using a 626-bp fragment from the nuclear-associated plasmid Ddp2. The ori from Ddp2 is localized within this fragment and was used to provide an autonomous replication sequence for the reporter vector. This reporter vector was stably retained in D. discoideum AX3K cells without alteration. The vector molecule was also found to exist in relatively low copy number compared to other Dictyostelium vectors in the transformed cells. We demonstrated the utility of this vector as a reporter vector with glycogen synthase promoter/luc fusions of varying sizes.
