Competent Cells
E. coli Competent Cells
G-Biosciences offers high efficiency Chemically & Electro Competent E. coli cells. These cells are suitable for high efficiency transformation in a wide variety of applications.
5-alpha Chemically & Electro Competent E. coli cells are derivative of the popular DH5α. It is T1 phage resistant and endA deficient for high-quality plasmid preparations. Chemically competent 5-alpha E. coli cells suitable for high efficiency transformation in a wide variety of applications.
10B Chemically & Electro Competent E. colis are derivative of the popular DH10B. It is suitable for high efficiency transformation in a wide variety of applications.
BL21 (DE3) chemically & Electro competent cells are widely used E. coli strain. It is suitable for protein expression under T7 promoter.
BL21 (DE3) pLysS Chemically & Electro Competent Cells are a widely used E. coli strain. It is suitable for protein expression under T7 promoter. The pLysS plasmid reduces base level expression of the gene of interest by producing T7 lysozyme, subsequently allowing for tighter control of expression. It has chloramphenicol resistance gene.
Agrobacterium Competent Cells
G-Biosciences manufactures a variety of Agrobacterium competent cells to support plant transformation and agricultural research.
G-Biosciences GV3101 Agrobacterium Chemically and Electro Competent Cells are optimized for high transformation efficiencies. The GV3101 strain is resistant to both rifampicin and gentamicin antibiotics. It is suitable for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of dicots such as Arabidopsis thaliana, tobacco, potatoes, and monocots like corn.
AGL1 Agrobacterium Chemically and Electro Competent Cells are optimized for high transformation efficiencies. The AGL1 strain is resistant to both Rifampicin and Carbenicillin antibiotics. It is suitable for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of Arabidopsis thaliana as well as maize and other monocots.
Ar.A4 Agrobacterium Chemically and Electro Competent Cells are made from a specific strain of Rhizobium rhizogenes optimized for high transformation efficiencies. The Ar.A4 strain is resistant to Kanamycin. It is suitable for transgenic operations of corn, tobacco, carrot, and other plants.
