Description
One Shot PIR1 Chemically Competent E. coli cells are for use with vectors that contain the R6Kγ origin of replication (e.g., pUni/V5-His-TOPO for recombination with an Echo cloning system). The pir gene encodes the replication protein π, which is required to replicate and maintain plasmids containing the R6Kγ origin. The PIR1 strain contains a mutant allele of the pir gene that maintains the donor vector construct at ∼250 copies per cell. PIR1 cells are competent and can achieve high transformation efficiency of >1 x 109 cfu/μg supercoiled plasmid.
R6Kγ allows tight control and selection and has been used in various applications including genome engineering, mutagenesis studies, bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) construction, high-capacity extrachromosomal vector systems, and suicide plasmid construction.
One Shot PIR1 Chemically Competent E. coli cells offer:
• pir gene to maintain vectors that contain the R6Kγ ori at ∼250 copies per cell
• Transformation efficiencies of >1 x 109 cfu/μg
• endA1 mutation enables increased plasmid DNA yield and quantity
• recA1 mutation reduce occurrence of unwanted recombination in cloned DNA
• hsdR for efficient transformation of unmethylated DNA from PCR applications
Convenient and efficient format
PIR1 Chemically Competent E. coli cells are supplied in the convenient, single-reaction One Shot format. Each tube contains enough cells for one transformation, reducing freeze-thaw cycles and money wasted on unused cells.
