The ViraPower™ Adenoviral Promoterless Gateway™ Expression Kit combines Invitrogen’s ViraPower™ Adenoviral and Gateway™ technologies to facilitate easy recombination-based cloning and adenoviral-based, transient expression of a target gene in dividing and non-dividing mammalian cells. The pAd⁄PL-DEST™ vector allows generation of an adenovirus containing the target gene where expression is driven by a promoter of choice. Alternatively, the vector may also be used to express small RNA molecules from their appropriate promoters.
Advantages • High efficiency and rapid recombination cloning • Produces high titer adenoviral stocks • Efficient delivery of the gene to dividing and non-dividing mammalian cells in vitro or in vivo • Allows gene of interest to be controlled by a promoter of choice • Produces replication-incompetent virus for enhanced biosafety of the system • Amenable for use in high-throughput applications
Key Features • Gateway™ Technology for efficient and rapid cloning • Promoterless vector that allows gene of interest to be controlled by a promoter of choice • Human Ad5 sequences (ΔE3) and Viral Inverted Terminal Repeats (ITRs) for packaging of the expression construct into virions • Ampicillin selection marker
Kit includes • pAd⁄PL-DEST™ Gateway™ Vector (6 μg. Cat. No. V493-20) • 293A Cell Line (3 x 106 cells, frozen. Cat. No. R705-07)

Frequently asked questions (FAQs)
Can I perform the single-step protocol for the BP/LR Clonase reaction using BP Clonase enzyme and LR Clonase enzyme instead of BP Clonase II enzyme and LR Clonase II enzyme?
In the single-step protocol for the BP/LR Clonase reaction, we would not recommend substituting the BP Clonase II/LR Clonase II enzymes with BP Clonase /LR Clonase enzymes as this would result in very low recombination efficiency.
Do you have a recommended single-step protocol for BP/LR recombination?
Yes, we have come up with a single-step protocol for BP/LR Clonase reaction (http://www.thermofisher.com/us/en/home/life-science/cloning/gateway-cloning.html#1), where DNA fragments can be cloned into Destination vectors in a single step reaction, allowing you to save time and money.
How can I move my gene of interest from a Gateway-adapted expression clone to a new Destination vector as I have lost the entry clone?
We would recommend performing a BP reaction with a Donor vector in order to obtain an entry clone. This entry clone can then be used in an LR reaction with the Destination vector to obtain the new expression clone.
Can I purchase the 5X LR Clonase buffer or 5X BP Clonase buffer separately?
We do not offer the 5X LR Clonase buffer and 5X BP Clonase buffer as standalone products. They are available as part of the enzyme kits.
Do you offer Gateway vectors for expression in plants?
We do not offer any Gateway vectors for expression in plants.
Depletion of Chk1 leads to premature activation of Cdc2-cyclin B and mitotic catastrophe.

Mitotic catastrophe occurs as a result of the uncoupling of the onset of mitosis from the completion of DNA replication, but precisely how the ensuing lethality is regulated or what signals are involved is largely unknown. We demonstrate here the essential role of the ATM/ATR-p53 pathway in mitotic catastrophe from ... More
