Protocol

Miniprep

Solution Ⅰ (50 mM Tris-HCl and 10 mM EDTA, and 50 µg/mL RNase A, pH 8.0 (25˚C))

Solution Ⅱ (0.2 M NaOH and 1 % SDS)

Solution Ⅲ (4 M guanidine hydrochloride and 0.5 M potassium acetate, pH 4.2)

Solution Ⅳ (5 M guanidine hydrochloride, 20 mM Tris-HCl, and 38% ethanol, pH 6.6 (25˚C))

Solution Ⅴ (2 mM Tris-HCl and 80% ethanol, pH 7.5 (25˚C))


Pick up a single colony from plate and cultivate it overnight in 3ml LB medium containing appropriate antibiotic at 37˚C˚.

Transfer the culture into a 1.5ml tube, centrifuge at 13,000 rpm for 1 minute, and discard the supernatant (2 times).

Add 250 µL of SolutionⅠ to the pellet and mix well with vortex.

Add 250 µL of SolutionⅡ and mix well by turning the tube upside down several times.

Add 350 µL of SolutionⅢ and by turning the tube upside down several times.

Centrifuge at 13,000 rpm for 5 minutes.

Transfer the supernatant (approx. 850µL) to a mini prep column.

Centrifuge at 13,000 rpm for 1 minute and discard the flow-through.

Add 500 µL of SolutionⅣ.

Centrifuge at 13,000 rpm for 1 minute and discard the flow-through.

Add 700 µL of SolutionⅤ.

Centrifuge at 13,000 rpm for 1 minute and discard the flow-through (2 times).

Set the column on a new 1.5ml tube and add 100 µL of nuclease-free water.

Centrifuge at 13,000 rpm for 1 minute and collect plasmid DNA.


Rapid check of the insert by colony cracking

Add 45 µL of cracking solution(3% w/v SDS ,50mM Tris -base ,pH12.6) into each tube.

Suspend a small quantity of the colony in a tube using a sterilized toothpick.

Incubate the tube at 65°C for 10 minutes.

Add a drop of 10x Loading Buffer.

Add equal volume of phenol/chloroform.

Mix with vortex.

Centrifuge at 13,000rpm for 3 minutes.

Apply the supernatant to 1% agarose gel electrophoresis.

Stain the gel in ethidium bromide solution for 10 minutes.

Plasmid DNA can be detected by UV-illuminator as a band between genomic DNA band and low molecular size RNAs.
