pLV-SFFV-HSVTK
- 20 ug / Standard ((DNA1052-STAN)) $ 1,500
- Name of plasmid: pLV-SFFV-HSVTK
- Description: pHR' SIN-SFFV-HSVTK plasmid DNA
- Amount of DNA: 20 ug
- Promoter: SFFV spleen focus forming virus promoter for high constitutive gene expression in numerous cell types. Unlike the CMV promoter, SFFV works very well in human, rodent, and other animal cells.
- Transgene: Herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase (HSVTK)
- Proposed Use: For generation of lentiviral vector stocks encoding herpes simplex virus thymidine kinase in a triple transfection protocol.
