pcDNA3.1-EGFP-C

The pcDNA3.1-EGFP-C vector is used widely in molecular biology and cell biology research, specifically gene function studies, protein-protein interaction studies, and gene therapy experiments. Gene function studies: This vector is used for cloning and expressing the gene of interest in various cell lines to study the function of this gene. The expression of the target gene can be confirmed by the presence of Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein (EGFP) in these cells. Protein-Protein Interaction Studies: Researchers can use this vector to study protein-protein interactions in a cellular context. The fused EGFP can be detected using fluorescence microscopy, which can provide real-time information on protein distribution and movement within cells. Gene Therapy: This vector can be used in preclinical and clinical studies for gene therapy applications. The ability to monitor gene expression via EGFP makes it an excellent tool to evaluate the efficiency of gene delivery methods and the functionality of the therapeutic gene. Developmental Biology Studies: This vector can be used to study gene expression patterns during development. The EGFP reporter allows for simple visualization of gene expression in live tissues at all developmental stages. Cellular Localization Studies: Through the fusion to EGFP, this vector can be used to study the cellular localization of a protein of interest. The fluorescence from EGFP can be visualized under a fluorescence microscope, granting direct observation of the protein of interest within the cellular environment.
