A new class of hybrid vectors, 'polycos' vectors, incorporate a phage lambda cos site and filamentous phage origin to allow high-efficiency cloning via in vitro lambda packaging extracts. The head-filling mechanism of cos site recognition by lambda packaging proteins permits concatemers of several of these small cos-containing vectors to be packaged per phage particle. Excision of vector monomers after infection is accomplished via a lambda ZAP-like M13 excision process. This system has the advantage of adapting high-efficiency lambda packaging extracts to M13 and phagemid cloning vectors.
一类新型的杂种载体——“多cos”载体,整合了噬菌体λ cos位点和丝状噬菌体复制起点,以允许通过体外λ包装提取物进行高效克隆。λ包装蛋白对cos位点识别的头部填充机制使每个噬菌体颗粒能够包装几个这类含小cos的载体的串联体。感染后载体单体的切除通过类似λ ZAP的M13切除过程完成。该系统具有使高效λ包装提取物适用于M13和噬菌粒克隆载体的优点。
