Chemically modified bacterial cells capable of uptaking DNA from the environment via transformation. Competent cultures of E. coli are used in the lab for various procedures including cloning, protein expression, and genetic library creation.
One Shot BL21(DE3)pLysE Chemically Competent E. coli cells are ideal for use with bacteriophage T7 promoter-based expression systems such as pRSET and pET.
One Shot MAX Efficiency DH10B T1 Phage-Resistant E. coli have all the benefits of the DH10B genotype, with the addition of the tonA (also known as fhuA) genotype for resistance to T1 and T5 phage infection.
HMS174 strains provide high transformation efficiencies and the recA mutation in a K-12 background. Strain may stabilize certain target genes whose products may cause the loss of the DE3 prophage.
Novagen's Rosetta™ 2 host strains are BL21 derivatives designed to enhance the expression of eukaryotic proteins that contain codons rarely used in E. Coli.
One Shot PIR1 Chemically Competent E. coli cells are for use with vectors that contain the R6Kγ origin of replication (e.g., pUni/V5-His-TOPO for recombination with an Echo cloning system).
MultiShot FlexPlate TOP10 chemically competent E. coli cells are cloning competent cells that are pre-aliquoted in a 96-well PCR plate to increase transformation productivity.
MultiShot FlexPlate DH5α T1R Chemically Competent E. coli cells are cloning competent cells derived from a well-known, versatile DH5α strain that can be used in many everyday cloning applications.
