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.
NovaBlue is a K-12 strain ideally suited as an initial cloning host due to its high transformation efficiency, blue/white screening capability (with appropriate plasmids) and recA endA mutations.
HMS174 strains provide high transformation efficiencies and the recA mutation in a K-12 background. T7 lysozyme expression suppresses basal T7 expression.
NovaBlue is a K-12 strain ideally suited as an initial cloning host due to its high transformation efficiency, blue/white screening capability (with appropriate plasmids) and recA endA mutations.
RosettaBlue host strains are NovaBlue derivatives that combine high transformation efficiency and with enhanced expression of eukaryotic proteins that contain codons rarely used in E. coli.
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.
