Bacterial Transformation

1. Take and aliquot of RbCl2 competent cells and thaw on ice

2. Add 10ul of Ligase Reaction

3. Incubate on ice for 30 min

4. Heat shock at 42 for 30s, move immediately to ice

5. Add 0.5ml of pre-TB

6. Shake for 30 min at 36C

7. Plate on LB/Amp grow in 37C overnight

8. Add one colony to 2ml of TB/Amp Liquid Culture

9. Grow at 37C till culture is cloudy

Mini-Prep (See QIAgen Kit Protocol)

1. After the mini-prep digest 1ul of plasmid

20u Digestion: 1ul Plasmid 2ul of NE Buffer (2ul 10x BSA) 0.5ul of Restriction Enzymes

       Remaining ul are H20

2. Digest the Plasmid for 1 hour

3. Run on gel to determine whether the insert has been incorporated
