Methods: GFP cDNA was inserted into pcDNA3.1-hIGF-1 to construct the co-expression vector with two multiple cloning sites mammalian expression vector under two cytomegalovirus promoters/enhancers respectively. Recombinant pcGI was transfected into NIH 3T3 cells with the help of lipofectamine. Results: Enzyme digestion and agarose gel electrophoresis analysis revealed that pcGI vector contained correct GFP and hIGF-I cDNA. Expression of (hIGF-1) and GFP was confirmed in transfected NIH 3T3 cells by immunocytochemical analysis and fluorescence microscopy. Conclusions: hIGF-I eukaryotic expression vector has been successfully labeled with GFP.展开更多
