Biobricked pCS2+ plasmid with HSP70 promoter for frogs and chicken

This plasmid is a biobricked version of the plasmid pCS2+(BBa_K812000)with HSP70 promoter. The CMV promoter was replaced by Hsp70 promoter with SalI and HindIII restriction sites. This plasmid is made of a bacterial ampicilin resistant backbone. The Biobrick site is surrounded by a 5'UTR expression enhancer, and a poly-A tail with a SV40 3' UTR that enhance the stabilisation of the mRNA and the expression of the protein.

This plasmid is ment to be micro-injected in frog eggs or chicken eggs for a transient expression of the protein at the early ages of development of the embryo. This plasmid does not replicate, so it gets diluted and degraded as the animal grow, leaving no chance for DNA propagation to the breeding.

To use this plasmid, you simply have to insert your protein between the EcoRI and PstI site. It is better to add a kozac sequence in front of your gene to enhance its expression. This plasmid contains the standard registry insert J04450 as a negative cloning control.

The Heat Shock Promoter 70 induce the expression of the protein which is after HSP70. The induction can occur heating tadpole from 21°C to 34°C.

The results of its sequencage presented some divergences with the reference sequence. That's why, all the results have to be consireded with caution.
