Backbone

  • Vector backbone
    pF4Ag
  • Backbone manufacturer
    Promega
  • Backbone size w/o insert (bp) 3827
  • Total vector size (bp) 4340
  • Modifications to backbone
    none
  • Vector type
    Mammalian Expression, Bacterial Expression

Growth in Bacteria

  • Bacterial Resistance(s)
    Ampicillin, 100 μg/mL
  • Growth Temperature
    37°C
  • Growth Strain(s)
    DH5alpha
  • Growth instructions
    Depositor uses KRX (Promega) strain for protein production. For bacterial culture grow overnight in LB+100ug/ml ampicillin at 37C. To induce expression of NanoLuc dilute overnight culture 1:100 into LB supplemented with 0.1% Rhamnose and 0.15%Glucose+100ug/ml ampicillin and grow for 20 hours at 25C. NanoLuc expressed in this fashion will produce signal that is too bright for most luminometers and lysates require dilution of at least ~10,000 fold.
