High efficiency cells to create uracil-containing DNA for site-directed mutagenesis
- Sole source of highly efficient Electrocompetent cells (1 × 109 cfu/µg)
- ung- and dut- mutations to generate DNA with some uracil residues
- Ideal genotype and efficiency for Kunkel directed mutagenesis method1.

Lucigen is the sole provider of high-efficiency electrocompetent CJ236 cells. This cell line was created by adding the pCJ105 plasmid to BW313 cells2, and is ideally suited to the Kunkel directed mutagenesis method. This method relies on the cells producing plasmid DNA containing some uracil residues. The dut- and ung- mutations prevent the cells from removing uracil from DNA caused by misincorporation or dCTP deamination. Note that these cells contain an F’ which confers resistance to Chloramphenicol at low levels.
As Electrocompetent cells, the transformation efficiency is 1 × 109 cfu/µg.

Competent Cells include Control DNA and Recovery Medium, and are packaged as DUOs (2 transformations per tube). Recovery Medium is also available separately. The specified transformation efficiencies are with pUC DNA, unless indicated otherwise.
