Species: | Escherichia coli |
Group: | K12 |
Strain designation: | M5219 |
Accession number: | LMBP 130 |
Depositor: | Prof. E. Remaut1 2 1 Department for Molecular Biomedical Research, VIB, Ghent, Belgium 2 Department of Biomedical Molecular Biology, Ghent University, Ghent, Belgium |
Containment level: | This strain has been assigned the containment level Class 1 following the European Directive 2009/41/EC on the contained use of genetically modified organisms, and its updates (see also the Belgian risk group classification). |
Medium: | LB-Lennox |
Selection marker: | / |
Temperature: | 28°C |
Genotype: | lacZam trpAam rpsL λ(bio252 cI857 ΔH1) |
Phenotype: | StrR |
Properties: | Expression host for plasmids containing phage λ's PL or PR promoter. Induction is obtained by shifting the culture from 28°C to 42°C. The resident λ is a defective lysogen. ΔH1 removes part of cro and all genes to the right of it. bio252 removes all genes to the left of cIII. cI857 is ind-. At 42°C, N is expressed from the lysogen. As a consequence, transcription termination signals that might be present downstream from the PL promoter and the nutL site, as present on the pPL-series of plasmids, can be overridden. |
Further information: | Useful for the expression of cloned genes carrying transcription terminators between the start of the gene and the insertion point. |
