==SOC==
+

-
==M9 supplemented with glycerol (M9gly)==
+
-
 
+
-
For 1L of medium, add:
+
-
* 716 ml of autoclaved (and cooled to Tamb) ddH2O
+
-
* 200 ul of autoclaved or filtered (0.2um) CaCl2 0.5 M
+
-
* 200 ml of autoclaved M9 salts 5x (dissolve 56.4 g in 1 liter ddH2O = 5x stock)
+
-
* 34 ml of filtered (0.2um) thiamine hydrochloride MW=337.27g/mol (340 mg in 34 ml)
+
-
* 20 ml of autoclaved MgSO4 0.1 M
+
-
* 20 ml of 10% autoclaved casamino acids (dissolve 50 g in 500 ml = 10% stock)
+
-
* 10 ml of autoclaved 40% glycerol as carbon source
+
-
* mix all the solutions in sterility (each solution must be completely dissolved!)
+
-
* (add antibiotic)
+
-
* store at +4°C, protected from light
+
-
 
+
-
NOTE:
+
-
* M9 salts 5x
+
-
* 10% casamino acids
+
-
can be stored at +4°C
+
-
* MgSO4 0.1 M
+
-
* CaCl2 0.5 M
+
-
* glycerol 40%
+
-
can be stored at room temperature or +4°C
+
-
* thiamine hydrochloride (LIGHT SENSITIVE) is one-shot and must be prepared each time
+

-
==Antibiotics==
+
-
 
+
-
Stocks at -20°C freezer:
+
-
* Ampicillin 100 mg/ml (in water)
+
-
* Kanamycin 50 mg/ml (in water)
+
-
* Chloramphenicol 34 mg/ml (in 100% ethanol)
+
-
These stocks are 1000x for high copy number plasmids.
+
-
For low copy number plasmids, you should use these final concentrations in media:
+
-
* Ampicillin 50 ug/ml
+
-
* Kanamycin 20 ug/ml
+
-
* Chloramphenicol 12.5 ug/ml
+

==Transforming home-made competent cells==
 
-
 
-
* heat ligation at 65°C to inactivate T4 ligase
 
-
* thaw in ice a vial of TOP10 competent cells stored at -80°C
 
-
* incubate a selective LB agar plate at 37°C
 
-
* pipet 800ul of LB (without antibiotic) in a 15ml falcon tube and incubate it at 37°C
 
-
* heat the water bath at 42°C
 
-
 
-
* add 1 ul (~3ng of DNA vector) of ligation to 100ul of thawed TOP10
 
-
* add parafilm and incubate in ice for 30 min
 
-
* heat shock at 42°C for 1 min
 
-
* incubate in ice for 2 min
 
-
* transfer transformed bacteria to 800ul of pre-warmed LB
 
-
* incubate at 37°C, 220 rpm for 1 h
 
-
* centrifuge at 1200 rpm, 25°C for 10 min
 
-
* take 650ul of supernatant and resuspend the pellet in the remaining LB (~150ul)
 
-
* plate the entire culture and incubate the plate at 37°C overnight
 
-
 
-
 
-
Variants:
 
-
* if you transform a miniprep, add less than 3 ng in order to have single colonies
 
-
* if you use another home-made competent strain, the protocol is the same but you should consider the transformation efficiency to add a proper amount of DNA
 
-
* if you use commercial Invitrogen TOP10 the protocol changes and it is reported below.

Transforming commercial competent cells
 
-
(according to manufacturer’s protocol)
 
-
 
-
* heat ligation at 65°C to inactivate T4 ligase
 
-
* thaw in ice a vial of TOP10 competent cells stored at -80°C (one vial contains 50ul of cells)
 
-
* incubate a selective LB agar plate at 37°C
 
-
* heat the water bath at 42°C
 
-
 
-
* dilute the ligation 1:50 (or 1:100) in ddH2O, in order to have less than 100pg/ul
 
-
* add 1 ul of ligation (or less than 100pg of miniprepped DNA) to 25 or 50ul of thawed TOP10
 
-
* add parafilm and incubate in ice for 10 min
 
-
* heat shock at 42°C for 1 min
 
-
* incubate in ice for 2 min
 
-
* add 250ul of SOC medium
 
-
* incubate at 37°C, 220 rpm for 1 h
 
-
* plate 150ul of the culture and incubate the plate at 37°C overnight
 
-
* the remaining 150ul can be stored at +4°C
