Dual-Function Vector for Protein Expression in Both Mammalian Cells and Xenopus laevis Oocytes

Abstract excerpt

Both Xenopus laevis oocytes and mammalian cells are widely used for heterologous expression of several classes of proteins, and membrane proteins especially, such as ion channels or receptors, have been extensively investigated in both cell types. A full characterization of a specific protein will often engage both oocytes and mammalian cells. Efficient expression of a protein in both systems have thus far only...
