Basic Vector Information
pSecTag2 and pSecTag2/Hygro are mammalian expression vectors designed for the secretion, purification, and detection of fusion proteins. Each vector has a large multiple cloning site in three reading frames to simplify cloning in frame with the N-terminal secretion signal. The vectors (Figure 1) offer the following features:1.Secretion signal from the V-J2-C region of the mouse Ig kappa-chain for efficient secretion of recombinant proteins; 2. Cytomegalovirus (CMV) promoter for high-level constitutive expression; 3.C-terminal polyhistidine (6xHis) tag for rapid purification with nickel-chelating resin and detection with an Anti-His(C-term) Antibody; 4. C-terminal c-myc epitope for detection with an Anti-myc Antibody; 5. Bovine Growth Hormone (BGH) polyadenylation signal and transcription termination sequence to enhance mRNA stability; 5. SV40 origin for episomal replication and simple vector rescue in cell lines expressing the large T antigen (e.g., COS-1, COS-7). The pSecTag2 vectors carry the Zeocin™ resistance gene for cost-effective selection in mammalian cells. Zeocin™ selection can also be used in E. coli.The pSecTag2/Hygro vectors have the Hygromycin B resistance gene for selection of stable mammalian cell lines.

Plasmid Resuspension Protocol:
1. Centrifuge at 5,000×g for 5 min.
2. Carefully open the tube and add 20 μl of sterile water to dissolve the DNA.
3. Close the tube and incubate for 10 minutes at room temperature.
4. Briefly vortex the tube and then do a quick spin to concentrate the liquid at the bottom. Speed is less than 5000×g.
5.Store the plasmid at -20 ℃.
