Design Notes
Although it has been try in a broad spectrum of cells and prove to be safe to the normal cells, it still has not been tried in ALL normal cells. So before using it to treat certain kinds of cancer, every team need to ensure that it want hurt the specify normal cells involve in the project. And it is a protein contain 121 amino acid that may big enough to induce immune reaction(although in the experiment of mouse it has not been reported.)
Source
We got the apoptin from Zhuang's lab,and cloned the EF-1alpha promoter from the plasmid provided by Lei Xiao.
