The pGEM?-7Zf(+) Vector(a) is a derivative of the pGEM?-3Zf(+) Vector(a) and contains
the origin of replication of the filamentous phage f1. The plasmid serves as a
standard cloning vector, as a template for in vitro transcription, and it can be used
for the production of circular ssDNA. The plasmid contains SP6 and T7 RNA polymerase
promoters flanking a region of multiple cloning sites within the α-peptide
coding region of β-galactosidase (1). Insertional inactivation of the α-peptide allows
recombinant clones to be directly identified by color screening on indicator plates.
The multiple cloning region is unique and includes restriction sites for Apa I, Aat II,
Sph I, Xba I, Xho I, EcoR I, Kpn I, Sma I, Csp45 I, Cla I, Hind III, BamH I, Sac I,
BstX I and Nsi I. This arrangement is designed specifically for generation of unidirectional
deletions with the Erase-a-Base? System(b). The polylinker contains
restriction enzyme sites that produce 5′ overhangs or blunt ends (sensitive to
Exonuclease III) flanked on both sides by blocks of restriction sites that generate
3′ overhangs (resistant to Exonuclease III).
For induction of ssDNA, bacterial cells containing pGEM?-7Zf(+) recombinants are
infected with an appropriate helper phage. The plasmid then enters the f1 replication
mode, and the resulting ssDNA is exported from the cell as an encapsidated viruslike
particle. The sequence of the ssDNA rescued upon infection with helper phage
is complementary to the sequence shown in Figure 1. The exported ssDNA can be
used for mutagenesis in vitro or can be sequenced using the T7 Promoter Primer
(Cat.# Q5021) or pUC/M13 Forward Primer (Cat.# Q5391, Q5601).
