Transformation

By Mimmi

nCPP culture growth assay

Prepared new clones to repeat the experiment from 15/10 by transforming new BL21.

Quick transformation protocol.

  • 50 μl competent BL21 (30 μl plated)
  • 0.5 μl plasmid DNA
    • pEX.SOD⋅His
    • pEX.nTra10⋅SOD⋅His
    • pEX.nTAT⋅SOD⋅His
    • pEX.nLMWP⋅SOD⋅His


Mimmi

clone non-CPP operon

(Andreas digested the operon from the vector pSB1C3 and ligated into pEX)


Transformation

  • 66µl thawed cells + 2µl ligated vector
  • Incubate on ice 30min
  • Heat shock 55s in 42°C, cool down on ice
  • Add 900µl LB, incubate in 37°C for 1h
  • Spinn down cells and remove 900µl supernatant
  • Resuspend cells and plate on LBamp + 0.1M IPTG (50µl)
