Restriction Endonucleases - The Molecular Scissors
The term “Restriction enzyme” originated from the studies of Enterobacteria phage λ (lambda phage) in the laboratories of Werner Arber and Matthew Meselson.
How Transfection Works
This brief webinar provides an overview of what transfection is and the methods that are used to introduce DNA or RNA into eukaryotic cells.
Introduction to Yeast Transformation
Transformation is the process by which exogenous DNA is introduced into a cell, resulting in a heritable change or genetic modification. This was first reported in Streptococcus pneumoniae by Griffith in 1928. Transforming principle of DNA was demonstrated by Avery
Mgat4 May Play a Role in Increased Sialylation by Overexpressing Functional MGAT1 in Mgat1-Disrupted Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) Cells
MGAT1 adds N-acetylglucosamine to the Man5GlcNAc2 (Man5) structure. Goh et al. reported increased sialylation after restoring MGAT1 function in MGAT1 deficient CHO cells.

SnapFast™ Restriction Site Functions
Learn more about relevant restriction site functions in the SnapFast™ plasmid system. All DNA sections are pre-screened, and where possible modified, to remove any of the restriction sites found within the core SnapFast plasmids to maintain their flexibility.
Competent Cell Selection & E. coli Markers Guide
Select competent cells by application, transformation efficiency, and genotype. We also present a list of E. coli markers for reference.
Troubleshooting in pGEX Expression Vectors
This page describes troubleshooting strategies for cloning the gene or gene fragment into a pGEX expression vector.
Reverse Transfection of Plasmid DNA
Automation is used for many applications to reduce variation caused by manual handling and to obtain reproducible results in high-throughput assays. High-throughput applications, such as knockdown studies or target screenings, often include cell transfection.
Cloning Genes-of-Interest into a Plasmid Vector
This cloning protocol includes selecting the cloning system and plasmid vector, plasmid restriction digestion, fragment restriction digestion, gel excision, dephosphorylating DNA and more.
Troubleshooting for Molecular Cloning
Molecular cloning is the process of inserting the gene-of-interest (GOI) into a plasmid vector and this vector is then inserted into a cell that expresses the protein encoded by the GOI. Once protein is expressed in the cell, the protein

Genotypes, Phenotypes and Markers
A genotype is a list of mutant genes in an organism. In addition to mutations of the genome, other genetic elements such as prophage or plasmids can also be included.
Bacterial Transformation Protocols
General protocols for growth of competent cells and their transformation (uptake of DNA).
