Synechococcus Elongatus Expression System

Synechococcus Elongatus Expression System

Synechococcus Elongatus is a versatile model cyanobacterium for study or biological production. S. elongatus PPC 7942 was the first cyanobacterium demonstrated to be reliably transformable by exogenously added DNA.

For customers who are looking for an excellent system for studying photosynthesis, circadian rhythms, nutrient regulation, environmental response, and lipid metabolism, please consider Creative BioMart's Synechococcus Elongatus Expression System.

Technology and Service Description

S.elongatus has small genomes, thus easy to be genetically manipulated by natural transformation. To improve cell productivity and purifiability, Creative BioMart has developed an enhanced expression vector for the constitutive expression in the system.

We use psbA1 to stably and efficiently start the synthesis of foreign protein. The vector has flexible polyclonal sites. In order to facilitate the detection and purification of the protein, the N-terminal and C-terminal of the vector are labeled respectively. If you are interested in this technology, please contact us for the vector map.
