18. A vector comprising the following operably linked DNA fragments:
-
an origin of replication (1) allowing replication in a recipient cell, a selectable marker region (2) capable of being expressed in said recipient cell; and
a chimeric DNA construct comprising in sequence;
a promoter or promoter region (3) capable of being recognized by a prokaryotic RNA polymerase;
a first recombination site (4), a second recombination site (5), a third recombination site (6) and a fourth recombination site (7);
a 3′
transcription terminating and polyadenylation region (8) functional in said eukaryotic cell;
wherein said first recombination site (4) and said fourth recombination site (7) are capable of reacting with a same recombination site, and said second recombination site (5) and said third recombination site (6), are capable of reacting with a same recombination site;
and wherein said first recombination site (4) and said second recombination site (5) do not recombine with each other or with a same recombination site;
orsaid third recombination site (6) and said fourth recombination site (7) do not recombine with each other or with a same recombination site. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 19, 20, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26, 27, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40)
