Restriction digests of the clone give the following sizes (kb): BamHI--6.4; BglII--6.4.
There is cryptic promoter activity which may be more readily observed with weak promoters. Be careful to do all appropriate controls and map the transcripts.
This is a derivative of plasmids patented by the University of California and is not to be used for commercial purposes without prior arrangement with the University of California.
One of a series of luciferase vectors (ATCC 37574-37584) for assaying promoter activity in mammalian cells.
