Schematic representation of the various plasmids used in this study. All plasmids are derived from the p588 plasmid (8) that consists of the two replication origins, oriP and oriLyt, the TR packaging-signal sequences, the EBNA1 gene, and the hygromycin-resistance gene (hyg). The other constructs carry a phenotypic marker (GFP in p2124 and MDR1 in p2194) or lack the TR packaging-signal sequences, as in p2122.
