Description

Commonly known as X-Gal. 5-Bromo-4-Chloro-3-Indolyl-β-D-Galactopyranoside, MP Biomedicals is a histochemical substrate for β-galactosidase. It is particularly useful in molecular biology, where β-galactosidase is frequently used as a report

5-Bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl-β-D-galactopyranoside is used as indigogenic substrate for β-galactosidase, for detection of β-galactosidase-positive clones, and the identification of lac and bacterial colonies or phage plaques.

It is a chromogenic substrate for β-galactosidase that produces a rich blue color that can easily be detected visually over background. X-Gal is the substrate of choice for blue-white selection of recombinant bacterial colonies with the lac+ genotype.

  • Insertion of DNA into the lac Z region results in the loss of β-galactosidase activity
  • Lac+ bacterial colonies resulting from a-complementation will appear blue
  • Bacterial colonies containing plasmid with DNA inserted in the lac Z region will be incapable of a-complementation and will appear white
