Thermo Scientific™ IPTG, dioxane-free
Induce the expression of genes under the control of lac operon in cloning and protein expression procedures.
Brand: Thermo Scientific™ R0391
Description
IPTG (isopropyl-beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside) is a highly stable synthetic analog of lactose. It inactivates the lac repressor and induces synthesis of beta-galactosidase, an enzyme that promotes lactose utilization. IPTG is used to induce expression of cloned genes under control of the lac operon . It is used in conjunction with X-Gal (#R0941) to determine the lac phenotype in blue/white colony screening.
