Product Introduction
Bioactivity
Name | X-GAL |
Description | X-GAL (BCIG) is a widely used chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase, which cleaves X-GAL to produce an insoluble blue compound. |
In vitro | Instructions: I. Solution preparation Mother solution preparation: Prepare X-GAL stock solution: Dissolve X-GAL in anhydrous dimethylformamide (DMF) or dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) to prepare a 20 mg/mL stock solution. Note: Protect from light, dispense in small volumes (e.g. 50–100 μL), and store at -20°C. The storage time should not be too long to avoid degradation. II. Operation steps 1. Prepare color reaction mixture 1) For plate screening: Add X-GAL and IPTG (isopropyl-β-D-thiogalactoside) to LB agar plates. Common final concentrations: X-GAL 40 μg/mL, IPTG 0.1 mM. Add X-GAL and IPTG when the agar medium cools to about 50°C, mix well, and pour onto the plate. 2). For liquid color development: Add X-GAL and IPTG to the reaction buffer, the usual concentration is the same as for plate screening. 2. Experimental application Blue-white screening: 1) Transform the vector containing the reporter gene (such as lacZ or lacZα) into the host bacteria (such as E. coli DH5α). 2) Spread on a plate containing X-GAL and IPTG and culture at 37°C for 12–16 hours. 3) Screening results: Blue colonies indicate positive β-gal activity (lacZ expression), and white colonies indicate negative (lacZ is not expressed). Tissue staining: 1) After appropriate tissue fixation and permeabilization, use a reaction buffer containing X-GAL (usually PBS at pH 7.2–7.5, containing Mg2?). 2) Incubate at 37°C for 12–24 hours, and observe the blue precipitate under a microscope for color development. |
