Epitope-tagging technology provides you a powerful means to functionally analyze your protein of interest without the need for an antibody specific to each new protein under study. The pCMV-Tag vectors have a single copy of the available epitope tags, while the pCMV-3Tag vectors have three copies of the epitope tag (in a variety of configurations) to prove a stronger signal in immmunological assays.

The pSG5 Vector is a 4.1 Kb eukaryotic expression vector constructed by combining pKCR2 and the Stratagene pBS vector. The high copy number of this plasmid allows for large quantities of double-stranded DNA to be obtained. Expression in vivo is achieved via transient expression in a variety of cell lines (highest level of expression is obtained following transfection of a cell line expressing the T antigen).
StrataClean resin eliminates the need to perform phenol:chloroform extractions, which are highly toxic and combustible. The resin is a non-toxic, non-combustible slurry of hydroxylated silica particles that is used to clean up DNA or concentrate dilute protein mixtures.
The StrataClone Mammalian Expression Vectors were designed for high-level expression of epitope-tagged proteins in mammalian cells. Use of StrataClone technology for the cloning steps allows rapid cloning of blunt-ended PCR products, produced using high-fidelity PCR enzymes, into the epitope tagging/expression vectors.
Our Vitality hrGFP (humanized, Renilla reniformis green fluorescent protein) products are optimal for mammalian expression protein studies that examine gene expression, transfection efficiency, and protein localization. Since hrGFP is derived from a different organism than EGFP, the hrGFP antibody does not cross react with the Aequorea victoria GFP variant-derived EGFP.
Our Mycoplasma Plus PCR Primer Set detects infection by all forms of Mycoplasma with a robust single-band PCR product (triplet for Acholeplasma). This kit also includes controls to verify PCR amplification and Mycoplasma genomic DNA. The primer design permits higher annealing temperatures, reducing spurious bands from PCR contaminants.
The MycoSensor PCR & QPCR Assay Kits detect Mycoplasma infection of cell cultures by real-time quantitative PCR (qPCR) or PCR in less than two hours.
Our SideStep lysis and Stabilization buffer ensures accurate gene expression studies by eliminating sample loss and degradation. Our proprietary buffer lyses cells and immediately stabilizes the released nucleic acid for months. Following the 10-minute room temperature lysis, you can go directly from cells to QPCR amplification without stopping to purify.
pCMV-Script PCR cloning system is a polymerase chain reaction (PCR) cloning method that can be performed in 1-hour without adding bases to the primers. The kit permits the efficient cloning of PCR fragments with a high yield and a low rate of false positives.
