One Shot® BL21(DE3)pLysE Chemically Competent E. coli

Category: Products & Services > Competent Cells & Strains > Expression Competent Cells

BL21(DE3)pLysE E. coli are ideal for use with T7 promoter-based expression vectors. Like BL21(DE3)pLysS E. coli , BL21(DE3)pLysE carry the lambda DE3 lysogen. In addition, BL21(DE3)pLysE cells contain the pLysE plasmid, which constitutively expresses T7 lysozyme. T7 lysozyme reduces the basal expression of target genes by inhibiting T7 RNA polymerase. The pLysE plasmid in BL21(DE3)pLysE expresses higher levels of T7 lysozyme than the pLysS plasmid in BL21(DE3)pLysS. The BL21(DE3)pLysE strain provides tighter control of T7 RNA polymerase, which is necessary when the recombinant protein to be ex...

One Shot® PIR1 Chemically Competent E. coli

Category: Products & Services > Competent Cells & Strains > Other Competent Cells & Strains

The Echo™ Cloning System is a two-vector system that utilizes the Cre-lox site-specific recombination system of bacteriophage P1 (1,2) for rapid cloning into multiple vectors. Your gene of interest is cloned into one of the specially designed donor vectors which can then be recombined with as many different Echo™ acceptor vectors as desired. The donor and acceptor vectors are placed in a buffer that contains Cre recombinase for a 25-minute, in vitro recombination reaction. Cre binds to the lox site present on each vector, brings them together, then cleaves and covalently reattaches the DNA str...

One Shot® BL21(DE3) Chemically Competent E. coli

Category: Products & Services > Competent Cells & Strains > Expression Competent Cells

BL21(DE3) E. coli are ideal for use with bacteriophage T7 promoter-based expression systems ( e.g. , pRSET, pCR¤T7, and pET). BL21(DE3) carry the lambda DE3 lysogen. Recombinant proteins that are non-toxic to E. coli are generally expressed at higher levels in BL21(DE3) cells than in BL21(DE3)pLysS or BL21(DE3)pLysE. However, the basal expression levels of heterologous genes are significantly higher in BL21(DE3) than in BL21(DE3)pLysS or BL21(DE3)pLysE.

Champion™ pET100 Directional TOPO® Expression Kit with BL21 Star™ (DE3) One Shot® Chemically Competent E. coli

Category: Products & Services > Kits & Assays > Protein Expression Kits > Bacterial Expression Kits

The Champion™ pET Expression System yields the highest-level protein production in E. coli . During expression, your protein of interest can reach levels greater than 50 percent of total cellular protein. Based on T7 expression vectors originally developed by Studier and colleagues (1-3), high-level expression is achieved because the T7 RNA polymerase is more processive than native E. coli RNA polymerase and is dedicated to the transcription of your gene of interest. Protein production is further enhanced in the system by the expression strain BL21 Star™ E. coli , which significantly improves ...
