CC   Kanamycin resistance should be checked at regular intervals.  This is
CC   best done during amplification steps using LB medium supplemented with
CC   50 ug/ml ampicillin and 12.5 ug/ml kanamycin. (personal communication)
CC   One of 3 shuttle expression vectors (pMSEx-1-3, ATCC 37835-37837)
CC   containing a synthetic oligonucleotide providing a translation
CC   initiation signal, followed by a StuI site in 3 different positions,
CC   followed by a stop signal in all reading frames.
CC   The sequence of the oligonucleotide is:
CC   AGCTTGGTAC CATGGACGCT CGAGGCCTAG CTAGCTAGGAGCT.
CC   A EcoRI/HindIII digest gives fragments of 2.63, 1.68, 0.97 and 0.32
CC   kb. (personal communication)
CC   The SV40 promoter has a 3 bp deletion at the BglI site within the
CC   origin of replication to prevent autonomous replication in the
CC   presence of SV40 large T-antigen.
CC   The MSV LTR provides a polyadenylation signal as well as an enhancer
CC   for the P1/thymidine kinase promoter regulating the Tn5 kanR/G418R
CC   transcription unit.
CC   Restriction digests of the clone give the following sizes (kb):
CC   HindIII--3.2, 2.9; BglII--6.1; EcoRI/HindIII--2.8, 1.8, 1.0, 0.4;
CC   EcoRI--4.7, 1.4; consistent with deposited DNA. (ATCC staff)
CC   The order of the major features in this plasmid is:SV40 promoter -
CC   oligonucleotide/StuI/oligonucleotide - MLV-LTR - P1 promoter -
CC   TK promoter - kanR/G418R - TK polyadenylation signal - ampR.
CC   Medium is 1227 LB plus ampicillin.
