GoldBio’s C58C1 Chemically Competent Agrobacterium cells allow you to obtain high transformation efficiency in applications such as gDNA or cDNA library construction. C58C1 has the chromosomal backbone of C58 but it has been cured of the Ti plasmid pTiC58. Our C58C1 strain harbors streptomycin and rifampicin resistance genes. C58C1 Competent cells are optimized for genetic transformation of plants such as Arabidopsis but can be used in many other plants.

pSuperAgro™ v4 was designed to include AcdS and GabT activity, driven by a single lac promotor, which both suppresses ethylene evolution and degrades gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) during co-cultivation. The combined suppression of ethylene and reduction of GABA significantly increases T-DNA transfer and increases transient and stable transformation frequencies in both tomato and grass plants.

GoldBio CJ236 chemically competent E. coli cells are ideally suited for use in the Kunkel method of mutagenesis. CJ236 cells have part of their Thymine replaced with deoxyuracil in the DNA due to dut- and ung- mutations which prevent the cells from removing uracil from DNA caused by misincorporation or dCTP deamination. CJ236 contains the F’ gene which confers Chloramphenicol resistance.

CJ236 chemically competent E. coli cells are free of animal-derived products and grown with animal-free media.

GoldBio’s EHA105 (pSoup) chemically competent Agrobacterium cells are optimized for high transformation efficiencies, making them ideal for applications such as cDNA or gDNA library construction. These cells are resistant to rifampicin, chloramphenicol, and streptomycin, providing versatility in selection and antibiotic resistance EHA105 strain contains a rifampicin resistance gene (rif) and an amber basic Ti plasmid pEHA105 (pTiBo542DT-DNA) without self-transport function, containing the vir gene.

The pSoup plasmid present in these cells is required for the replication of pGreen, 62SK, and pGs2 series plasmids, increasing the range of applications for the EHA105 (pSoup) system. These competent cells are suitable for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of dicots such as Arabidopsis thaliana, tobacco, potato, as well as monocots like corn, making them an ideal choice for plant molecular biology research.

GoldBio’s EHA105 Agrobacteriumstrain was generated, and primary clone supplied by Dr. Elizabeth Hood.

EHA105 (pSoup) Electrocompetent Agrobacterium cells are designed to provide high transformation efficiencies for applications such as cDNA or gDNA library construction. The strain contains a rifampicin resistance gene (rif) and an amber basic Ti plasmid pEHA105 (pTiBo542DT-DNA), which carries the vir gene necessary for the insertion of T-DNA into the plant genome. Although the pEHA105 plasmid is incapable of transferring its own T-DNA, it can still transfer foreign binary vector T-DNA.

The presence of the pSoup helper plasmid is required for the replication of pGreen, 62SK, and pGs2 series plasmids, and also helps with Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of dicotyledonous plants like Arabidopsis thaliana, tobacco, and potato, as well as monocotyledonous plants such as corn.
