CpG-FREE DNA 6<br />
CpG-Free Genes - Synthetic CpG-free Genes<br />
Many non-mammalian genes are widely used as reporter or suicide genes <strong>in</strong> molecular and cellular studies. However these genes are recognized<br />
as foreign DNA by the vertebrate host lead<strong>in</strong>g to a progressive decl<strong>in</strong>e of their expression. To circumvent this limitation, InvivoGen has<br />
synthesized new alleles of these genes completely devoid of CpG d<strong>in</strong>ucleotides. These synthetic CpG-free genes display higher activity and<br />
lower immunogenicity than their wild-type counterparts.<br />
Description<br />
The DNA sequence of the CpG-free genes was modified by optimiz<strong>in</strong>g<br />
the codon usage, elim<strong>in</strong>at<strong>in</strong>g the CpG nucleotides and avoid<strong>in</strong>g secondary<br />
DNA structures without chang<strong>in</strong>g the am<strong>in</strong>o acid sequence of the wild<br />
type prote<strong>in</strong>s.<br />
CpG-free genes were chemically synthesized by assembl<strong>in</strong>g large<br />
oligonucleotides. Sequence <strong>in</strong>tegrity was verified by double-stranded<br />
sequenc<strong>in</strong>g.<br />
CpG-free genes are provided <strong>in</strong> the pSELECT-zeo plasmid (see page 32).<br />
pSELECT-zeo is a mammalian expression plasmid selectable <strong>in</strong> E. coli and<br />
mammalian cells with Zeoc<strong>in</strong> . Each CpG-free gene is flanked by a unique<br />
restriction site at the 5’ and 3’ end to facilitate its subclon<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong>to another<br />
vector.<br />
Contents and Storage<br />
Each pSELECT-zeo- plasmid is provided as 20 μg of<br />
lyophilized DNA. Product is shipped at room temperature and should<br />
be stored at -20°C. Plasmid is stable up to one year when properly stored.<br />
Each plasmid is supplied with 4 pouches of E. coli Fast-Media ® Zeo (2 TB<br />
and 2 Agar, see pages 44-45).<br />
