This invention relates to an engineered *
Escherichia coli* strain and a method for preparing
gene 3 knockout helper phages. The
genome of the engineered *E. coli* strain integrates
a DNA module containing elements such as T7
Lysozyme, araC, ParaBAD, T7
RNA polymerase, PT7-lacO, and Ff
gene 3. Through dual induction with L-
arabinose and IPTG, tight regulation and high-level expression of the g3p
protein can be achieved. Its property of strictly limiting leakage expression effectively reduces g3p
protein degradation and misfolding. Using this strain to produce
gene 3 knockout helper phages significantly improves the packaging efficiency and yield of the helper phages, reaching ≥ 8.5 × 10⁻⁶. 14 The pfu / L concentration is at least 600 times higher than existing technologies, significantly reducing production costs. This invention has significant application value in the field of
phage display technology.
