NZY5alpha

NZY5alpha Competent Cells display similar properties to DH5alpha, which are suitable for high efficiency transformation in a wide variety of applications. The phi80dlacZ?M15 marker provides alpha-complementation of the beta-galactosidase gene from pUC or similar vectors and, therefore, can be used for blue/white screening of colonies on bacterial plates containing Blue-gal or X-gal. NZY5alpha can also serve as a host for the M13mp cloning vectors. In addition to supporting blue/white screening, recA1 and endA1 mutations in DH5alphaTM Cells increase insert stability and improve the quality of plasmid DNA prepared from minipreps.
