Broad host range vectors for protein expression in gram negative bacteria?

11 November 2018 0 4K Report

Hi,

I am interested in recommendations of expression vectors for expression of proteins in E.coli and other Gram negative bacteria (potentially) that are independent of the T7 TNA polymerase; eg T5, pBAD, Rhamnose and other.
