Seed the plate
[2014 Oct. 3rd]
Materials
- G5 cells(HeLa cells transfected with Cas9 gene under control of Tet-On).
- DMEM with 10% FBS, Penicillin-Streptomycin and 4.4μg/mL blasticindin and 2.0 μg/mL puromycin.
Procedures
- Rinse the plate twice with PBS to remove any floating cells and wash out all medium.
- Trypsinize all of the cells and suspend with complete medium with 4.4μg/mL blasticindin and 2.0 μg/mL puromycin.
- Count cell concentration and dillute to 50,000 cells/ml. Add suspention 1ml with 50,000 cells per well 12 wells into 24-well plate.
- Incubate the 24-well plate for 12 hours.
Result
Cells are seeded very even in the well. Perfect for transfection.
Transfection
[2014 Oct. 4th 11:00]
We have to stably transfect HeLa cell to construct a new cell line, so we use piggybac to integrate gene into genome.
For 3 different modified EGFP gene, we have 3 groups 4 wells per group.
Materials
- Lipofectamine® 3000 Reagent
- Opti-MEM
- DMEM with 10% FBS.
- Endo-free extract piggybac
Concentration of EGFP+target sequence. Target sequence Concentration HIV1 6638 ng/μl HBV1 + HBV2 6076 ng/μl HBV2 6653 ng/μl Procedures
- Dilute 0.75μl/well 9μl at total Lipofectamine 3000 reagent in 25μl/well 300μl in total Opti-MEM, and incubation for 5min
- Prepare master mix of 3 groups, DNA 0.5μg/well by dilutiong 3 plasmidsd in Opti-MEM medium 25μl/well according to the form, then add P3000 reagent 1μl/well.
- Add dilutetd DNA to each tube of diluted lipo 3000.
- Incubation for 10min
- Add DNA lipid complex to cell waiting for the harvest.
Laboratory note
Composition of 3 groups of mixture target+EGFP Piggybac HIV1 0.15 0.345μl HBV12 0.165 0.345μl HBV2 0.15 0.345μl - Add DNA to 100μL/group Opti-MEM medium according to the table and add 4μL P3000 reagent, mix well.
- Dilute Lipofectamine 3000 Reagent in Opti-MEM Medium: 300μL Opti-MEM Medium + 9μL Lipofectamine 3000 Reagent, mix well.
- Add 100μL Diluted Lipofectamine 3000 to Diluted DNA of each group (1:1 ratio), mix well.
- Incubate for about 10min.
- Add DNA-lipid complex (25μL per well) to cells, shake the plate. (11:40 am)
- After 12h, change the medium with the complete medium with 10% FBS and Penicillin-Streptomycin.

Passage cells
Passage cells 3 wells to one petri dish, and the other 1 well to another petri dish for monoclones.
- Wash cells with PBS, trypsin digestion, add medium to stop digestion
- Transfer cell suspension of 3 wells into a petri dish, and 1 well into another petri dish.
- Count the cell concentration with blood counting chamber.
- Mark the new dishes, add 6 mL medium to every dish, mix well.
- Culture.
