Making Competent E. coli cell
Transformation of E. coli
Preparation
- iGEM parts / ligation products
- SOC or LB (No antibiotic) 500μL
- TE 15μL
- plates
- ice box
- heat block(42℃)
- competent cells
→ always on ice! Melt on ice! Mix DNA as soon as cells melt!
Protocol
to thaw out igem parts
- With a pipette tip, punch a hole in the foil
- Add 15uL of TE (MilliQ),and pipetting
- Pipette 1uL of the resuspended DNA Transformation into your desired competent cells
- Hold on ice for 30 mins
- Heat shock at 42°C for 45 seconds (and on ice after it)
- Add 300uL of LBborth in each epp
- Wait for 10 mins
- Hold at 37℃ for 30 mins
- Plate out
- Incubate at 37°C
