T7Select^® Packaging Kit

Novagen′s T7Select^® Phage Display System is a novel phage display system that takes advantage of the properties of bacteriophage T7. This system is easy to use and has the capacity to display peptides up to about 50 amino acids in size in high copy number (415 per phage), and peptides or proteins up to about 1200 amino acids in low copy number (0.1-1 per phage) or mid-copy number (5-15 per phage). Phage assembly takes place in the E. coli cytoplasm and mature phage are released by cell lysis. Unlike the filamentous systems, peptides or proteins displayed on the surface of T7 do not need to be capable of secretion through the cell membrane, a necessary step in filamentous phage assembly.

T7Select Packaging Extracts are optimized for maximum packaging efficiencies of T7Select vectors ligated with insert. The high efficiency extracts (> 2 x 10⁸ pfu/µg with T7Select Packaging Control DNA) make it easy to produce a library containing at least 5 x 10⁷ recombinants per microgram of arms. The extracts are made from a specially engineered phage that reduces the nonrecombinant cloning background to below 0.1%.
