Species:Escherichia coli
Group:K12
Strain designation:DH5αpir
Accession number: LMBP 7962
Depositor: Prof. Dr M. Herrington1
1 Biology Dept, Concordia University, Montreal, Canada
It was obtained from Dr G. Philips2
2 College of Veterinary Medicine, Dept of Microbiology, Iowa State University, Ames, Iowa, USA
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-Miller
Selection marker: tetracycline (10 µg/ml), nalidixic acid (20 µg/ml)
Temperature: 37°C
Genotype: endA1 hsdR17 glnV44 (= supE44) thi-1 recA1 gyrA96 relA1 ϕ80dlacΔ(lacZ)M15 Δ(lacZYA-argF)U169 zdg-232::Tn10 uidA::pir+
Phenotype: TetR NalR
Properties: This is a host strain for R6Kγori plasmids. In pir+ strains, R6K-containing plasmids replicate like medium-copy p15A plasmids.
Further information: The tetracycline and nalidixic acid resistance, conferred by Tn10 and gyrA96 respectively, have been experimentally confirmed by BCCM/GeneCorner.
