Search NCCB vector database

This database contains data on about 300 vectors available from NCCB. These vectors are cloning vectors, some vectors with inserts, and helper plasmids (like plasmids expressing conjugative functions or e.g. T7 polymerase).

When you have selected one of the following categories a form is displayed in which you can enter one or more search arguments.

Vector number or name

This option allows you to search for a vector with a particular element name, e.g. pBGS8, or an NCCB collection number, like NCCB 3000.

Properties of vectors

This option allows you to search for vectors having particular properties, like incompatibility group, copy number, markers, cloning sites or applications.

Lists of cloning vectors

In alphabetical order.

List of phages

Most popular cloning vectors

In the output, restriction sites carry one of the following codes:

U - the site is unique in the vector
E - the site can be used for expression
(e.g. behind a promoter/t.i.r., before a reporter gene)
I - the site is located within a gene, insertion of a DNA
fragment leads to insertional inactivation of the gene
