Protocols
Our project deals with E.coli cells which sense Auto-inducing peptides (AIPs) from the Staphylococcus aureus and starts producing Antimicrobial peptides in order to kill the Staphylococcus aureus. Different protocols used during the project are described below.
- Transforming Parts from Distribution kit
- Growing the Single Colonies from the Agar Plates
- Making glycerol stocks
- Miniprep Protocol
- Restriction digestion
- Ligation
- Gel Extraction Procedure
- PCR Purification
Transforming Parts from Distribution kit
Requirements:
- Distilled water
- Pipettes
- Ice
- Competent cells
- SOC media
- Agar plates with Antibiotics
- Timer
- Water bath
Prodecure
- Mark the location on distribution plate by looking at the right row and column as mentioned. Punch the plate with a pipette and add 10 µL of distilled water.
- Resuspend the Dry DNA on the distribution plate with distilled water.
- Inoculate the competent cells with the desired DNA from the distribution plate as described in step 2. Add 1 µL of the resuspended DNA to the competent cells. Use 2 mL tubes and keep the cells on ice at all the times for a more efficient transformation.
- Incubate the transformation on ice for 5 min.
- Heat shock the transformation the water bath at 42⁰C for 30 sec.
- Incubate on ice for 2 min.
- Add 200 µL SOC Media to the transformation.
- Incubate the transformation at 37⁰C for 1 hour.
- Plate out 20 µL of transformation with 10% and 90% on separate agar plates with appropriate antibiotics.
- Incubate the agar plate overnight (14-16 hours) at 37⁰C.
Single colonies are selected from the above plates and grown in LB media to prepare glycerol stocks and carry out Miniprep to extract the desired plasmid.
