I do use the Duet vectors extensively and they work just fine. I have trouble with my protein
complex, but that is solely related to my proteins. My lab mate has used these vectors very
successfully.

I have been using pRSF-Duet and pETDuet1 more than pCDFDuet1 or pACYCDuet1 for no specific reason
except for a slight preference for the antibiotics. I avoid pACYCDuet1 (Cam resistance) since a lot
of expression cells I use have plasmids with Cam resistance.

Also, I recently heard about the chaperone co-expression from Takara and folks claim that this
system works well.

Also, some folks recommend pCOLD vectors (Takara). Might be worth looking into if you are shopping
anyway. I don't think these are for co-expression but it is just as easy to stitch in a T7 promoter
and RBS to incorporate additional genes.

Hope that helps.
Raji
