ntibody Design Labs is proud to announce the availability of the FAST-Licase cloning system. FAST-licase enables the ultra-fast cloning in just a few seconds of two or more DNA fragments by homologous recombination. This novel toolbox for the molecular biologist rethink traditional cloning with immense savings of both time and money.

hage vector fADL-2blue is now available in store. The fADL-2blue™ phage vector continues the fADL phage vector series by bringing trypsin-sensitivity for elution together with ampicillin-resistance and blue colonies that together limit contaminations by other phage. fADL-2blue also has an improved virion production and a higher content of DNA in its replicative form. fADL-2blue™ rivals with the best vectors build by George Smith, the inventor of phage display.

The TGEX-SCblue vector let you transfer scFv fragments seamlessly between phage clones and an Fc fusion cassette thanks to a common double SfiI site, enabling easy and rapid validation of new antibodies as scFv-Fc fusions.

The TGEX™ Vector Series is designed for the rapid transient expression of antibodies under varied formats (full antibodies, Fab fragments, Fc fusions, scFv-Fc fusions). Yields in widely available mammalian cell culture systems in suspension and serum-free conditions are between 10 mg/L and 100 m g/L in just a few days.

M13KO7d3 is a novel helper phage engineered for multivalent phage display. M13KO7d3 lacks a functional gene III driving the display of pIII-fusion proteins expressed by the phagemid. M13KO7d3 is similar to pIII-defective helpers such as Hyperphage, Ex-Phage or Phaberge that have been shown to increase display of scFv by a factor up to 100-fold and more.

hage-Competentâ„¢ cells are concentrated stabilized bacterial cells with multiple applications in phage display. These cells can undergo multiple freeze-thaw cycles without losing their titer and can be expanded without latency to generate large volumes of cells ready for transduction. Phage infectivity is usually equal or higher than infectivity measured on bacteria freshly prepared and transduction gives more reliable and reproducible numbers of cfu and pfu. Today we are pleased to make TG1 and SS320 cells available under this new format.

hagemid vectors pADL-20c, pADL-22c, and pADL-23c are now available in store. To get full advantage of the amber suppression for expression of soluble antibodies and direct detection without sub-cloning, we adjusted the level of expression to match the high expression vector pCOMB3, a popular phagemid known for its robust display and moderate toxicity. A transcription terminator has been added after gene III to prevent excessive production of beta-lactamase during induction period.
