Protocol Code: CT5
Protoplast Transformation
Solutions needed
- SMMP + lysozyme
- TE buffer
- 2x SMM
- PEG solution
- DM3 plates
- Antibiotic plates
Procedure
- Centrifuge cells and suspend in 1/10 volume of SMMP solution
- Add lysozyme @ 2mg/ml
- Incubate @ 37˚C for 2h
- Pellet cells at 2600g for 15 min
- Wash once with SMMP and pellet again
- Bring to 1/10-1/15 volume of starting culture by adding SMMP
- This is stable for ~ 5h at room temp
- Add 5ug or less DNA to 50ul TE buffer and mix with equal volume of 2x SMM solution
- Add 0.5ml protoplast solution
- Immediately add 1.5ml of 40%(w/v) PEG
- After 2 min add 5 ml SMMP medium
- Centrifuge for 10 min at 2600g
- Resuspend in 1ml SMMP and incubate for 2-3h at 37˚C
- Plate on DM3 recovery plates for a day (can try going straight to antibiotic)
- Plate colonies on antibiotic plates
