Gene, 1997•ElsevierThe two-plasmid system of Gossen and Bujard [Gossen and Bujard (1992) Proc. Natl. Acad.
Sci. USA 89, 5547–5551] to express mammalian genes in a tetracycline-repressed fashion
was combined into a single-plasmid system. Two variants of this single-plasmid system that
differ in the multiple cloning site (MCS) region are described. These vectors were used to
stably transfect raf kinase domain into the normal rat kidney epithelial cell line (NRKE) to
obtain a conditionally transformed cell line. These vectors were also used to stably transfect …

These vectors were used to stably transfect raf kinase domain into the normal rat kidney epithelial cell line (NRKE) to obtain a conditionally transformed cell line. These vectors were also used to stably transfect wild-type and mutant human p53 into the human osteosarcoma cell line, SAOS-2. Tetracycline repressed gene expression in both cell lines; about 12-fold in NRKE and about 80-fold in SAOS-2 cell line.
