636767	Stellar™ Competent Cells (96-well plate)	96 x 20 uL	USD $532.00
Stellar Competent Cells arranged in a 96-well plate for high-throughput transformation. Stellar Cells are an E. coli HST08 strain that provides high transformation efficiency. These cells can be used in a wide variety of applications: from preparation of cDNA and genomic libraries, to construction of longer-length genomic libraries, to subcloning, and even methylated DNA cloning. Stellar Competent Cells lack the gene cluster for cutting foreign methylated DNA (mrr-hsdRMS-mcrBC and mcrA), and are therefore useful for cloning methylated DNA. The cells can also be used for blue/white screening (i.e., α-complementation) when transformed with vectors containing the lacZα gene. A pUC19 vector, SOC Medium, 8-Cap Strips, and a Plate Lid are included. These competent cells are recommended for use with Takara Bio's In-Fusion PCR Cloning Kits.

Documents Components Image Data Back Stellar Competent Cells provided transformation efficiencies equivalent to or better than those obtained using DH5α or DH10B competent cells The high efficiency of Stellar Competent Cells was especially noticeable in the transformation of 10 kb and 20 kb plasmids. Using DNA plasmids of 2 kb (100 pg), 10 kb (1 ng), and 20 kb (1 ng), each strain of competent cells was transformed and plated on ampicillin-containing LB agar plates. Transformation efficiencies were determined based on the colony counts obtained. Back Stellar Competent Cells provided the highest transformation efficiencies for all the ligation reaction mixtures tested. The difference in transformation efficiencies of the competent cells was particularly prominent when cloning 20 kb fragments. Ligation reactions were set up with either 100 ng of a 2 kb, Hind III-cut DNA fragment + 50 ng of Hind III/BAP-cut pUC118 vector, or 75 ng of a 20 kb, Hind III-cut DNA fragment + 25 ng of Hind III/BAP-cut pUC118 vector. All reactions were performed at 16℃ for 6 hours using the Takara DNA Ligation Kit (Cat# 6023 or 6024). Each strain of competent cells was transformed using portions of these reaction mixtures and plated on ampicillin-containing LB agar (+ X-gal). Transformation efficiencies were determined based on the white colony counts obtained. Back Stellar Competent Cell colonies showed a faster growth rate than DH10B colonies Stellar colonies transformed with larger plasmid clearly showed a faster growth rate. DNA plasmids of 2 kb (Panel A) and 10 kb (Panel B) were each used to transform Stellar and DH10B competent cells with similar genetic characteristics, including methylation requiring restriction. This experiment used the same method as in Figure 1. Photographs of colonies on agar were taken after 15 hours of incubation. Back Stellar Competent Cells (96-well plate)Catalog No.636767
