• Comparable to DH5alpha™
• Available in both chemically competent and electrocompetent formats
• Readily accepts large plasmids due to deoR mutation
• Excellent for subcloning and library construction
• Efficient blue/white screening
PEAK™ Efficiency competent cells are appropriate for routine subcloning and cDNA library construction. In addition to supporting blue/white screening, the cells provide recAI and endAI mutations to improve plasmid DNA quality and minimize recombination. Includes pUC19 control plasmid for monitoring transformation efficiencies.
Subcloning Efficiency: > 107 cfu/µg pUC19
