Biology ExpressionExpressivity

Expression vector
A cloning vector designed so that a foreign gene inserted into the vector will be expressed in the host organism. The inserted DNA is often placed under the control of a strong, regulatable promoter (e.g.

 


Expression Vectors
The promoter and ribosome binding site codes in Eukaryotic DNA are likely to be different than those used by the host organism.

expression vector
A vector that allows a DNA sequence cloned into it to be transcribed when the vector is introduced into a cell.

Expression vectorA vector which is designed to allow expression (transcription and translation) of the inserted section of DNA.

Exons can also be identified by procedures in which a genomic fragment is cloned into an intron of a mammalian expression vector. A fragment containing an exon will be included in the mRNA expressed from the vector.

In this technique, DNA coding for a protein of interest is cloned (using PCR and/or restriction enzymes) into a plasmid (known as an expression vector).
