Picked KAH79 and KAH126
Transfected each well of two 12-well plates with 1ug of plasmid DNA.
Step 1: Make mastermixes
MM1: Mix PLUS reagent with optimem

- I messed this up, it's reflected in the table below showing that some wells had 1.82ul of PLUS reagent.
MM 2: Lipo LTX and optimem

Step 2: Mix MM1 with DNA
- Add 91ul of MM1 to 1ug DNA in 10ul of Elution solution
- Incubate for 5 minutes at RT
Step 3: Mix in Lipo LTX
- Add 100ul of MM2 to DNA-MM1
- Incubate for 30 minutes at RT
Steo 4: Add complexes dropwise to each well
