M13 T7 polymerase

[bradley turner]

Tim,

The T7 polymerase is also available in a lambda phage CE6 available from
Novagen if you are interested, although I guess this would lyse your cells.
although it will induce expression when infected into a host carrying
an expression vector with a T7 promoter


Bacteriophage CE6 0.2ml cat. no. 69390-1 $50
                  10ml  cat. no. 69390-2 $200

Such a phage is available from Invitrogen with their pRSET Xpress 
expression kit.  I don't know if they sell it separately.
