Isolation of a functional human interleukin 2 gene from a cosmid library by recombination in vivo

Please always quote using this URN: urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-62662
  • A method has been developed that allows the isolation of genomic clones from a cosmid library by homologaus recombination in vivo. This method was used to isolate a human genomic interleukin 2 (IL2) gene. The genomic cosmid library was packaged in vivo into A. phage particles. A recombination-proficient host strain carrying IL2 cDNA sequences in a non-homologaus plasmid vector was infected by the packaged cosmid library. After in vivo packaging and reinfection, recombinants carrying the antibiotic resistance genes of both vectors were selected.A method has been developed that allows the isolation of genomic clones from a cosmid library by homologaus recombination in vivo.
