1 Cloning with Plasmids

2 1973 Genetic Engineering Invented

3 Cloning: Digestion TARGET GENE SOURCE DNA MARKER

4 Cloning: Digested Fragments TARGET GENE

5 MARKER Cloning: Ligation TARGET GENE DNA LIGASE

6 MARKER Cloning: Recombinant Plasmid TARGET GENE

7 Cloning: Transformation E. coli

8 Cloning: Competence E. coli Ca 2+

9 Cloning: Preparing Competent Cells inoculate culture with a 1/100 dilution of an overnight grow to an OD600 of 0.2 transfer to 50 ml Falcon tubes, chill on ice 10'. pellet in Beckman kneewell centrifuge, 3K, 10'. resuspend in 12.5 ml 100mM MgCl2 (This is best done by initially resuspending the cells in 1 ml, using a P1000 and then adding an additional 11.5 ml.) pellet resuspend in 25ml 100mM CaCl2 (1ml then 24). incubate on ice for 20 minutes pellet resuspend in 0.5 ml 85mM CaCl2 and 15% glycerol snap freeze in liquid nitrogen, keep @ -70°C.

10 Cloning: Competence E. coli

11 Cloning: Transformation E. coli

12 Cloning: Transformation E. coli

13 Cloning: Transformation After ligations have gone for one hour, you will do the following in order to transform the competent cells: 1) Thaw competent cells and quickly add 150 µl of these cells to each ligation tube. Mix gently. Leave on ice for 20 minutes. 2) Heat shock cells by placing tubes in a 42°C water bath for 90 seconds. 3) Add 0.8 ml L broth and incubate at 37°C with gentle shaking for 1 hour.

14 Cloning: Plating plasmid ligase plasmid kan gene ligase amp kan

15 Today’s Activities Set up ligation Set up digestions to complete map and for blot (use 2x volume for blots) Transform ligations into competent cells Plate transformations onto amp and kan plates
