StarGate® Acceptor Vector Backbone Descriptions


pASG-IBA vectors

  • High-level expression in E. coli, also for toxic proteins
  • Tightly regulated expression due to anhydrotetracycline (AHT) inducible tetA promoter/operator
  • Option for periplasmic expression due to ompA signal sequence
  • No catabolite repression - no influence of medium components
  • Not influenced by the genetic background – wide choice of E. coli expression strains
  • Inexpensive induction with AHT.
