ABSTRACT:
Systems are provided for the dual purpose of cloning genes using antibodies as probes and isolating unknown proteins encoded by cloned DNA. The method employs a vector derived from phage which is used in combination with a high frequency lysogenic host. The vector is further characterized by having an inducible promoter regulating expression of a gene into which the foreign DNA may be introduced to produce a fused protein, and controlled induction of the prophage with rapid increase in copy number and high level transcription of foreign DNA. The technique is exemplified with a specific lambda phage construct in conjunction with the .beta.-galactosidase structural gene lacZ.
