Map and Features of pFast<strong>Bac</strong> HT, continued<br />

Features of the<br />

Vec<strong>to</strong>r<br />

The pFast<strong>Bac</strong> HT A (4856 bp), B (4857 bp), and C (4858 bp) vec<strong>to</strong>rs contain the<br />

following elements. All features have been functionally tested.<br />

Feature<br />

Polyhedrin promoter (P PH )<br />

6xHis tag<br />

TEV recognition site<br />

Multiple cloning site<br />

SV40 polyadenylation signal<br />

Tn7L and Tn7R<br />

f1 origin<br />

Ampicillin resistance gene<br />

pUC origin<br />

Gentamicin resistance gene<br />

Benefit<br />

Allows efficient, high-level expression of your<br />

recombinant protein in insect cells (O'Reilly et<br />

al., 1992).<br />

Allows purification of your recombinant<br />

protein using a metal-chelating resin such as<br />

ProBond (Catalog no. K850-01) or Ni-NTA<br />

(Catalog no. K950-01).<br />

Permits removal of the N-terminal tag from<br />

your recombinant protein using TEV protease<br />

(Carring<strong>to</strong>n and Dougherty, 1988; Dougherty et<br />

al., 1988).<br />

Allows restriction enzyme-mediated cloning of<br />

your gene of interest.<br />

Permits efficient transcription termination and<br />

polyadenylation of mRNA (Westwood et al.,<br />

1993).<br />

Mini Tn7 elements that permit site-specific<br />

transposition of the gene of interest in<strong>to</strong> the<br />

baculovirus genome (i.e. bmon14272 bacmid)<br />

(Luckow et al., 1993).<br />

Allows rescue of single-stranded DNA.<br />

Allows selection of the plasmid in E. coli.<br />

Permits high-copy replication and maintenance<br />

in E. coli.<br />

Permits selection of the recombinant bacmid in<br />

DH10<strong>Bac</strong> E. coli.<br />
