Product Information
Description
Highlights
- Engineered E. coli K12 to promote disulfide bond formation in the cytoplasm
- Constitutively expresses a chromosomal copy of the disufide bond isomerase DsbC
- DsbC promotes the correction of mis-oxidized proteins into their correct form (1,3)
- The cytoplasmic DsbC is also a chaperone that can assist in the folding of proteins that do not require disulfide bonds (4)
- Expresses a chromosomal copy of T7 RNAP
- Tight control of expression by lacIq allows potentially toxic genes to be cloned
- Resistance to phage T1 (fhuA2), Nit, Str, Spec
Transformation Efficiency
1 x 106 cfu/µg pUC19 DNA Chemically competent E. coli K12 cells engineered to form proteins containing disulfide bonds in the cytoplasm. Suitable for T7 promoter driven protein expression.Genotype

Product Notes
- STORAGE AND HANDLING: Competent cells should be stored at -80°C. Storage at -20°C will result in a significant decrease in transformation efficiency. Cells lose efficiency whenever they are warmed above -80°C, even if they do not thaw.
