Goal

Extract the integrative plasmid HO-Poly-KanMX4-HO from the E.Coli provided by AddGene (Accession number #51662).

Procedure

  • Liquid culture overnight in LB.
  • Centrifuge the tubes for 1 minute with 11000 rpm.
  • Follow the standard protocol of Thermo Scientific miniprep kit (is it? I followed Ihab's protocol here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1QHBHcN8RY0c-oEY8X5kAqPrKYODTBm7K8eU_lY_yw-o/edit, we should compare them)
  • Measure concentration with Nanodrop
  • Label the centrifuge tube and store it in the -20 freezer. (g15.35)

Results

Final DNA concentrations of the 4 tubes of miniprep, measured with Nanodrop:
  • tube HO pl. 1 = 431.1 ng/uL
  • tube HO pl. 2 = 313.6 ng/uL
  • tube HO pl. 3 = 366.4 ng/uL
  • tube HO pl. 4 = 261.7 ng/uL
