Cumate Solution, high concentration, 10,000x for use with PiggyBac

The reagent behind tight, titratable gene expression

Product Description

• Robust—increase expression up to 32-fold
• Adjustable—tune expression levels by titrating the amount of cumate
• Reversible—turn expression on, then off, then on again
• Powerful—suitable for in vivo applications

Prepared specifically for use with SBI’s inducible PiggyBac Vectors, the Cumate Solution for the PiggyBac Transposon System is a ready-to-add 10,000x inducer solution.

How it works

Get robust, titratable gene expression with low background using SBI’s cumate-inducible vectors. These vectors take advantage of CymR, a repressor that binds to cumate operator sequences (CuO) with high affinity in the absence of cumate, a non-toxic small molecule. Providing much lower background expression than similar systems, SBI’s cumate-inducible vectors can provide up to 32-fold induction of gene expression.

Customer Agreements

Academic customers may purchase PiggyBac Transposon System components for internal research purposes with no time restrictions, whereas commercial customers will be contacted after placing an order to sign a customer agreement granting a 12-month limited-use license (previously 6 months) to evaluate the technology.

SBI is fully licensed to distribute PiggyBac vectors as a partnership with Demeetra (formerly Hera BioLabs, Inc.).
