  • Activation-tagging vector constructed by Igor Kardailsky in the Weigel lab (Weigel et al. , 2000). The complete sequence has been deposited in GenBank under accession AF187951 .
  • The CaMV 35S enhancers in these vectors correspond to nucleotides -417 to -86 relative to the transcription start.
  • BAR gene (confers Basta resistance) for selection in soil (see the page on activation tagging).
  • Recommended Agrobacterium strain is GV3101 pMP90RK. Host and helper plasmid markers are kanamycin, gentamycin and rifampicin resistance.
  • Plasmid selection in E. coli and in A. tumefaciens is ampicillin resistance.
  • Sites that leave the pBstKS+ sequences intact and cut only on one side between pBstKS+ and either left or right border can be used for plasmid rescue. Note that there are additional BssS1 sites not shown on the map.
  • NOTE: The multimerized 35S enhancers tend to be unstable in Agrobacterium. Always inoculate cultures for transformation from plates that have been streaked from -80°C stocks.
