HI,
Could you please suggest some good bacterial strains which can transform
the plasmid  PUAST efficiently?
I have been using HB 101  strain till now.But the problem wiht HB 101
strain is
that it is methylating the restriction sites and the digestions are not
working.Is there any remedy to avoid this?PLease suggest.
Thank you
  Soma.
