Los kits de expresión pTrcHis- y pTrcHis2-TOPO™ TA permiten la clonación rápida y eficaz de productos de PCR en un vector de expresión procariótica para una expresión regulada de alto nivel del promotor trc. El vector en cada kit, pTrcHis-TOPO™ o pTrcHis2-TOPO™, incluye un elemento de minicistron para mejorar la eficacia de la traslación de las proteínas eucariotas en E. coli. Ambos vectores se proporcionan linealizados y activados con topoisomerasa I para una clonación TOPO™ de 5 minutos con una eficacia de clonación >85 %. Para simplificar la detección y purificación de proteínas, los vectores pTrcHis-TOPO™ y pTrcHis2-TOPO™ incluyen las siguientes características:

pTrcHis-TOPO™

Preguntas frecuentes

Can I store my competent E. coli in liquid nitrogen?

We do not recommend storing competent E. coli strains in liquid nitrogen as the extreme temperature can be harmful to the cells. Also, the plastic storage vials are not intended to withstand the extreme temperature and may crack or break.

How should I store my competent E. coli?

We recommend storing our competent E. coli strains at -80°C. Storage at warmer temperatures, even for a brief period of time, will significantly decrease transformation efficiency.

What are the advantages and/or disadvantages of using TOP10, DH5α, or other cloning strains versus BL21 Star (DE3) or BL21 (DE3) cells for expression with the pTrc system?

Top10, DH5α, other cloning strains

Advantages:
- Saves time, can go directly from cloning to expression.
- The glycerol stock is more stable because these strains are endA- and recA-.

Disdvantages:
- If GOI is toxic, the cloning step can be difficult.
- These cloning strains are not protease-deficient; therefore, the protein may be degraded.

BL21 Star(DE3) or BL21 (DE3)

Advantages:
- These expression strains are protease-deficient.
- You have to transform the plasmid into an expression strain.
- The glycerol stock may be unstable because these expression strains are not endA- and recA-.
- The (DE3) part is wasted because the promoter does not need T7 RNA polymerase.

What competent cell strain can I use for expression with my pTrc Expression System?

The pTrc promoter is recognized by E. coli RNA polymerase, not T7 polymerase, and therefore can be expressed in any E. coli strain, not just BL21 strains. Therefore, you can use Top10, DH5α, etc. for expression. However, if your gene is toxic, the cloning step can be difficult as there is leakiness in expression.

How does glucose repress the pTrc promoter?

A transcriptional activator protein called CAP (catabolite activator protein) normally binds upstream of the trc promoter and activates transcription. This protein requires cAMP to bind the DNA. Adding glucose to the medium can reduce intracellular cAMP levels. Supplementing LB medium and agar plates with glucose will repress basal level transcription from the trc promoter. We recommend that you include 25 mM, 0.5% glucose in the selection medium to ensure stability of your insert.

The L1 metallo-beta-lactamase from Stenotrophomonas maltophilia is unique among this class of enzymes because it is tetrameric.

The N-terminal extension was also implicated in beta-lactam binding. Mutation of ... More
