Cloned(Commentary)

Cloned (Comment) Organism
a DNA fragment encoding the N-terminus of the TbPLK gene product is cloned into the tetracycline-inducible RNAi vector pZJM for knockdown of TbPLK expression, for tagging proteins TbPLK is cloned into the pC-EYFP-Bla vector, a plasmid for expressing glutathione S-transferase-TbPLK is constructed by cloning a DNA fragment containing full-length TbPLK into the vector pET41a Trypanosoma brucei
