Expression vector launch


 

Oxford Expression Techologies (OET) recently launched flash-BACGOLD, a baculovirus expression vector designed specifically to reduce proteolysis, maximise protein secretion and improve membrane protein targeting. Ideally suited for the expression of complex secretory or membrane-bound glycoproteins, flash-BACGOLD is based on the OET’s patented flashBAC system which uses a single-step method for the rapid and automated generation of baculovirus expression vectors. Plaque purification is not required. flashBACGOLD is back-compatible with all existing baculovirus transfer vectors based on homologous recombination in insect cells at the polyhedrin locus. The main advantages of flashBACGOLD is that it is rapid and simple.
