General description
The BL21(DE3) Electrocompetent Cells are the first to offer high efficiency cloning and high level protein expression in the same cell.
Cloning efficiencies are increased 25-1,000 fold relative to other preparations of BL21 cells, which is essential for construction of complex expression libraries.
Genotype
F – ompT hsdSB (rB- mB-) gal dcm (DE3)

Features and Benefits
The unprecedented transformation efficiency of the BL21(DE3) Electrocompetent Cells (> 5 × 109 cfu/μg) eliminates the need for plasmid transfer from the cloning strain to the expression strain, saving days of work in a typical cloning and expression experiment

Under high light, oxygenic photosynthetic organisms avoid photodamage by thermally dissipating absorbed energy, which is called nonphotochemical quenching. In green algae, a chlorophyll and carotenoid-binding protein, light-harvesting complex stress-related (LHCSR3), detects excess energy via a pH drop and serves as

We follow the cotranslational biosynthesis of three multispanning Escherichia coli inner membrane proteins in vivo using high-resolution force profile analysis. The force profiles show that the nascent chain is subjected to rapidly varying pulling forces during translation and reveal unexpected

Miniaturization of biochemical reaction volumes within artificial microcompartments has been the key driver for directed evolution of several catalysts in the past two decades. Typically, single cells are co-compartmentalized within water-in-oil emulsion droplets with a fluorogenic substrate whose conversion allows
