Basic Vector Information
pYC2-CT is a low-copy shuttle plasmid for Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It has CEN6/ARSH4 for single-copy stability, a galactose-inducible (glucose-repressed) GAL1 promoter, a URA3 marker for screening, and C-terminal V5/6×His tags for protein detection/purification. It’s widely used in yeast gene expression control, protein localization and interaction studies.
