[IDT] À¯ÀüÀÚ ÇÕ¼º ÈÄ plasmid transformation protocol [chemical]
Transformations (Chemical)
  1. Place frozen competent cells and pre-labeled tubes on ice
  2. Pre-warm the hot bath to 42¡ÆC
  3. Once cells are thawed on ice, aliquot 25 µL of XL1 Blue cells to each of the pre-chilled tubes. Keep all the tubes on ice
  4. Add 2 µL of ligation or PCR reaction to cells and gently swirl the cells with pipette tip
  5. Incubate on ice for 30 minutes
  6. Heat shock tubes for 45 seconds in 42¡ÆC hot bath
  7. Return tubes to ice for 2 minutes
  8. Add 250 µL of SOC Media to each tube and place tubes in a 37¡ÆC shaking incubator for 1 hour
  9. Pre-warm agar plates to 37¡ÆC in incubator
  10. Spread 125 µL of cells on agar plates
  11. After spreading cells, let plates sit for approximately 10 minutes at room temperature. Then place the plates upside down in 37¡Æ incubator for 12 – 24 hours
Inoculation
  1. For a large number of colonies, use a 2.2 mL deep well plate and add 1.6 mL of LB Broth with the appropriate antibiotic.
    For a small number of colonies, use a 14 mL round bottom culture tube and add 2 mL of LB Broth with the appropriate antibiotic
  2. Touch the colony with a toothpick or pipette tip and place it in the broth
  3. Cover with a gas permeable lid and place in a 37¡Æ shaking incubator for 12 – 20 hours.
Digestions
The standard in-house digestion protocol is below:
DNA 400ng
Buffer 5µL
Water XµL
Enzyme(s) 1µL each
Total Volume 50µL
Incubate for 1 hour at the temperature recommended by the enzyme manufacturer. Take 2-5 µL of the digested sample, add loading dye, and run on a gel to verify that the digestion took place. In separate lanes, also run a ladder to verify the size of the product and a sample of undigested product as a control.
*The length of running time for the gel will depend on the size of the digested insert. Smaller inserts require shorter run times or the product will run off the gel.
*The enzyme should not be more than 1/10th of total reaction
