XL1-Red Competent Cells
Agilent Technologies200129
These competent cells enable a highly efficient, rapid, and reproducible method for introducing random mutations in a cloned gene of interest. This method involves propagating the cloned gene into XL1-Red Competent Cells; an Escherichia coli strain which is deficient in three of the primary DNA repair pathways.

- Suitable for generating random mutations within genes lacking selectable or screenable phenotypes
- Does not require extensive genetic or biochemical manipulations
