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.
Rosetta-gami B strains combine the key features of BL21, Origami, and Rosetta to enhance both the expression of eukaryotic proteins and the formation of target protein disulfide bonds.
Rosetta-gami B strains combine the key features of BL21, Origami, and Rosetta to enhance both the expression of eukaryotic proteins and the formation of target protein disulfide bonds.
Rosetta-gami B strains combines the key features of BL21, Origami, and Rosetta to enhances the expression of eukaryotic proteins. T7 lysozyme expression suppresses basal T7 expression.
Rosetta strains are BL21 derivatives designed to enhance the expression of eukaryotic proteins that contain codons rarely used in E. coli. Contains the pLacI plasmid producing extra Lac repressor.
