Ligation
- Ligation mix
- 1:5 ratio of plasmid backbone : Insert
- 1 µl 10 x T4 Ligase buffer (vortex)
- 0.5 µl T4 Ligase
- adjust to 10 µl with ddH2O
- Let the mixture stay for 1h at room temperature
- Denature the ligase at 65 °C for 5 min
Transformation
- Thaw competent cells on ice.
- Add 200 µl cells to 10µl liagtion mix
- Place the mixture put them on ice for 30 min
- Heatschock 30 sec at 42 °C
- Place the mixture again on ice for 2 min
- Add 4 x SOC medium (800 µl)
- Let them growth for 60 min at 37°C
- Spin cells down for 5 min at low speed
- Remove the supernatant, resuspend the cells
- Spread 100 µl of the cells onto the plates.
