General description
Thunderbolt GC10 electrocompetent E. coli have a very high transformation efficiency of >1x1010 cfu/μg when transformed with non-saturating amounts of pUC19 plasmid DNA. They are comparable to DH10β strain.
Application
Suitable for recovery of high quality plasmid DNA and generation of cDNA libraries from plasmid-based vectors
Biochem/physiol Actions
Thunderbolt GC10 electrocompetent E. coli is K strain bacteria that contain mutations in recA1 and endA1 genes. These mutations aid in minimizing recombination and ensuring plasmid stability. This strain also contains tonA genotype that confers resistance to lytic bacteriophages such as T1 and T5. The host restriction systems are eliminated to allow the cloning of methylated DNA.
Features and Benefits
- Ensures recovery of stable, high quality plasmid DNA as well as methylated DNA
- Renders protection to clonal stocks from T1 and T5 bacteriophage contamination
- Allows for β-galactosidase α-complementation for blue/white screening
- Guaranteed high transformation efficiency
- Convenient 80 μL or 100 μL aliquots
Other Notes
- Thunderbolt GC10 electrocompetent cells, 5 X 80 μL or 5 X 100 μL (T7074)
- pUC 19 control DNA (10 ng/μL), 10 μL (D2567)
