rs released by
Stratagene. It is derived from the pET-11 vector series and contains the
lacI
q gene for expression of the Lac repressor protein
and the hybrid T7 promoter
for controlled expression
of the inserted protein coding sequence.
8 The vector is transformed
into specialized E. coli strains, such as Epicurian Coli
BL21(DE3), which contain an expression cassette for T7 RNA polymerase
that is induced in the presence of IPTG, allowing tight control and high-level
induced expression of the inserted protein coding sequence. The promoter
is followed by the 26-amino acid CBP affinity tag followed by a thrombin
cleavage site, the FLAG epitope, an enterokinase cleavage site, the multiple
cloning site (MCS), and the T7 transcriptional terminator.

Highly efficient, directional cloning of the desired insert into the
pCAL-n-FLAG vector is by ligation-independent cloning (LIC), a method
that does not require ligation or restriction enzyme digestion (Figure
2, Panel A). The pCAL-n-FLAG vector is pretreated to create noncomplementary,
12- and 13-nucleotide single-stranded tails at the two 5
ends of the vector. These noncomplementary tails prevent the vector
from recircularizing. The insert DNA is prepared by PCR amplification
with gene-specific primers that include 12- and 13-nucleotide sequences
at the 5 ends that are complementary to the
pCAL-n-FLAG vector single-stranded tails, thus allowing for directional
cloning. Following PCR amplification , the PCR product is purified, then
treated with Pfu DNA polymeras
