Documentation

ATCC determines the biosafety level of a material based on our risk assessment as guided by the current edition of Biosafety in Microbiological and Biomedical Laboratories (BMBL), U.S. Department of Health and Human Services. It is your responsibility to understand the hazards associated with the material per your organization’s policies and procedures as well as any other applicable regulations as enforced by your local or national agencies.

Detailed product information

General

Specific applications
produces protein prorennin A prochymosin

Characteristics

Comments
pPFZ-R2 (ATCC 39544) and pPFZ-R4 (ATCC 39543) are the same except that the ATG initiation codon follows the ribosomal binding site of the trp leader peptide by 5 bp in pPFZ-R2 and by 11 bp in pPFZ-R4.
The insert contains BamHI sites. A KpnI/SalI digest should give a probe of about 970 bp which contains the sequences encoding aa 83 through the TGA stop codon.
pPFZ-R2 (ATCC 39544) shows significantly higher expression of the protein product than pPFZ-R4 (ATCC 39543).
Constructed from two fragments of pCR101, a 235 bp BamHI/KpnI fragment (encoding aa 6-83) and a 4772 bp HindIII/KpnI fragment (encoding aa 83 through TGA stop codon, pMB1, ampR) ligated with a 370 bp HindIII/BamHI fragment of ptrpLI-R4-B48.
The 370 bp HindIII/BamHI fragment of ptrpLI-R4-B48 contains trp promoter-operator, ribosome binding site, artificial ATG initiation codon, and chemically derived sequence encoding the first 5 amino acids of the protein.

Constructed from two fragments of pCR101, a 235 bp BamHI/KpnI fragment (encoding
aa 6-83) and a 4772 bp HindIII/KpnI fragment (encoding aa 83 through TGA stop

ptrpLI-R4-B48. The 370 bp HindIII/BamHI fragment of ptrpLI-R4-B48 contains trp
promoter-operator, ribosome binding site, artificial ATG initiation codon, and
chemically derived sequence encoding the first 5 amino acids of the protein.
