  • add 200µL of LB right after pulsing
  • recover 2 hours at 37°C
  • plate 200µL and 50µL of the cells on LB + erythromycin (200µg/mL), incubate overnight at 37°C

Electrocompetent Cells Preparation Protocol
  • Inoculate two 250mL LB flasks with 100µL of an overnight culture of DH5α
  • incubate until the the DO600 reach 0.5 to 0.7
  • place the cultures on ice for 15 minutes
  • pour the culture in cold sterile 50mL falcon tubes
  • centrifuge them for 10 minutes at 6000rpm
  • throw the supernatant
  • resuspend the cells in 50mL cold distilled water
  • centrifuge them for 10 minutes at 6000rpm
  • throw the supernatant
  • resuspend the cells in 25mL cold distilled water
  • centrifuge them for 10 minutes at 6000rpm
  • throw the supernatant
  • resuspend the cells in 12.5mL cold 10% glycerol
  • centrifuge them for 10 minutes at 6000rpm
  • throw the supernatant
  • resuspend the cells in 5mL cold 10% glycerol
  • make aliquots of the desire volume in microcentrifuge tubes and freeze them at -80°C
Heat Shock transformation protocol
  • Thaw frozen chemically competent cells (20µL aliquots) on ice for 10min.
  • add 2µL of ligation product (or 0.5µL of miniprep) and incubate the cells 30sec at 42°C.
  • put the cells back on ice for 2min.
  • add 200µL of LB to the cells and incubate 2 hours at 37°C.
  • plate the cells on LB + erythromycin (150µg/mL) or LB + erythromycin (10µg/mL), incubation at 37°C overnight.
Ligation Protocol
  • Mix the following
    • vector 100ng
    • insert 300ng
    • T4 DNA ligase buffer 10X
    • T4 DNA ligase
    • up to 20µL of water

Digestion Protocol
  • Prepare the following mix:
    • 4μL of Enzyme 1
    • 4μL of Enzyme 2
    • 4μL of FastAP
    • 12μL of Fast Digest buffer 10X
    • 1 to 3 μg of DNA
    • up to 120μL of water
  • mix by pipetting up and down
  • incube 10min at 37°C
Miniprep protocol using a QIAGEN kit
  • centrifuge an overnight culture of cells 10min at 4krpm
  • throw the filtrate
  • resuspend the pellet in 250μL of Cell Resuspension Solution then mix it
  • transfer it in a 1.5mL microcentrifuge tube
  • add 250mL of Cell lysis solution and mix by inverting several times
