Miniprep of cells

  • The pSB1C3 RFP cells that were incubated in luria broth overnight yesterday, were minipreped using the OMEGA bio-tek protocol, in order to isolate plasmid of interest.
Result of Miniprep Nano Drop
Samples volume (ul) Concentration (ng/ul)260/280260/230
1 40 56.21.89 1.95
2 40 62.3 1.88 2.02

Double Digest of the pSB1C3 miniprep

Samples 1 and 2 were transfered to new eppendorf tubes

  • In each tube it was added
    • 39ul of DNA (miniprep)
    • 1ul of XbaI
    • 2ul of SpeI
    • 6ul of cut smart buffer
    • 12ul of sterile water

The samples were incubated at 37 degrees water buffer After the samples were incubated at 80 degrees to kill the enzymes

Transformation of TOD genes ligations done on the 02/09/13 using the pGEM-T Vector System I-A3600 (changes were made to the protocol)

  • Centrifuge the ligations reactions briefly.
  • Add 5ul of each ligation reaction to a sterile 1.5ml
  • Thaw the competent cells on ice. Mix the cells by gently flicking the tube.
  • Carefully transfer 100ul of the competent cells to the ligation reaction tubes.
  • Incubate the tubes on ice for 20 minutes
  • Heat-shock the cells for 45-50 seconds in a water bath at exactly 42C degrees. Do not Shake. Immediately return the tubes to ice for 2 minutes.
  • Add 950ul of room temperature SOC medium to the ligation reaction transformations. incubate for 1.5 hours at 37C with shaking.
