2 - Preparation of electrocompetent DY330 and transformation via pJBEI6409
by Sean
A. Preparation of DY330 strain
Protocol
- Dilute 1 mL of DY330 in 100mL of LB at 30°C.
- When optical density is around .6, divide the 100mL into four 50mL centrifuge tubes. Centrifuge for four minutes at 4°C, 4000rpm. Discard supernatant.
- Repeat, but this time with 25mL of 10% glycerol solution in each tube.
- Repeat, but this time with 12.5mL.
- Remove supernatant and resuspend pellet with any remaining supernatant. Collect all of the strain from the four tubes then store in ice.
B. Transformation by electroporation
Protocol
- Fill three electroporation cuvettes as follows. a)50µL of DY330+2µL of pJBEI6409 plasmid. b)50µL of DY330+4µL of pJBEI6409. c)Control without DNA.
- Electroporation at 2500V, 132W, 40µF.
- Add 950 µL of cold LB in each cuvette.
- Incubate at 30°C and under agitation for two hours.
- Spread on nine petri dishes (LB+Cm): 50 µL from each cuvette, 100 µL from each cuvette, remainder from each cuvette. Incubate overnight at 30°C. NB: before spreading the remainder, centrifuge it, then remove 750 µL of supernatant.
