A clone of the Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) thymidine kinase (TK) gene was derived from a cDNA library of P3HR1 cells. The gene product was expressed as a fusion protein in a procaryotic system by using T7 RNA polymerase. The recombinant TK showed a molecular mass of 67 kDa and was biologically active. Antiserum raised in mice immunized with partially purified TK recognized an antigen present in EBV-superinfected Raji cells using an indirect immunofluorescence assay.

Molecular Cloning
D004247 DNA A deoxyribonucleotide polymer that is the primary genetic material of all cells. Eukaryotic and prokaryotic organisms normally contain DNA in a double-stranded state, yet several important biological processes transiently involve single-stranded regions. DNA, which consists of a polysugar-phosphate backbone possessing projections of purines (adenine and guanine) and pyrimidines (thymine and cytosine), forms a double helix that is held together by hydrogen bonds between these purines and pyrimidines (adenine to thymine and guanine to cytosine).
