ElectroMAX™ DH5α-E™ cells are derived from the DH5α™ strain and are suitable for transformation by electroporation. They may be used in procedures requiring high transformation efficiencies, such as generation of cDNA libraries or in transformations with limited input DNA (1). ElectroMAX™ DH5α-E™ cells offer the following benefits:

• >1 x 10¹⁰ transformants/µg efficiency with electroporation

• Greatly increased plasmid yield and quality due to endA1 mutation

• High-efficiency transformation with plasmids 30 kb in size (2)

• Blue/white screening of recombinant clones due to lacZΔM15

• Ensured insert stability due to recA1 mutation
