1. Transformations: Transformations of genes/plasmids into cells and onto LB plates have grown. | |
2. Primers: Transferring from glass tubes to 1.5mL tubes. | NOTE: Tube #12 looks darker than other primers possibly contaminated. |
3. Transformations continued: | |
a. Thaw cells on ice | |
b. Combine & incubate on ice (20 mins); 50uL of cells and
2uL plasmid. | |
c. Heat shock 1 minute @ 42C. | |
d. Incubate on ice for 5 minutes. | |
e. Recover in 250uL S.O.C. @ 37C for 2 hours | |
f. Plate 100uL and incubate O/N (overnight) @ 37C | |
*Refer to iGEM “transformation” section for details. | NOTE: only #6, #12, and #13 plasmids/genes grew on Dh5alpha competent cells. The other eleven plasmids used had to be re-done for a transformation onto TOP10 competent cells. |
