Dicistronic selection for nuclear proteins in living animal cells

Gene. 1993 Dec 27;137(1):145-9. doi: 10.1016/0378-1119(93)90263-3.

Abstract

We present an expression/selection system designed for the purification of cell lines inducibly expressing genes coding for unselectable proteins by using dicistronic selection for the cell surface marker CD4. This system enabled us to establish and purify c-myb expressing variants of the v-myb transformed chicken monoblast cell line BM2 with high efficiency.
