> Master mixes (4, x3): 10.8 μL Fugene + 139.2 μL Opti-MEM --> R.T/ 5 min.
> Add 3x vol DNA --> R.T./ 20 min.
> Add 50 μL complexes to each well (2 ml med. each); Grow cells at 37°C overnight
Day 2
> Change to CO2 independent medium (L-15, no phenol red, 10% T.S. FBS, 1% P/S)
> Mark anchor point on well 1
> Set up plate under scope; secure plate to ensure no shifting; set to 34°C (Note: heater is +3-4°C off)
> Find RFP+ cells and set staging
> Add 1 μg/mL Dox; record images every 2-4 hours
