Procedure
1) Use bottles or tubes that are set aside for RNA work. Harvest 15ml cells by centrifugation for approx. 2 minutes @ 2500g. Cells should make a nice pellet.
2) Discard the supernatant and take up the all liquid with a pipette.
3) Resuspend cells in 600 µl 1x Lysis Buffer to cell suspension and shake slowly for 20 minutes at 4°C in coldroom.
4) Set up 2ml tubes for phenol/CHCl3 extractions
5) Extract cell suspension with 600µl ml Phenol/CHCl3/Isoamyl Alcohol (25:24:1, e.g. Roti© from ROTH) and shake well for 1 minute
6) Centrifuge @ 12000g for 5 minutes.
7) Collect upper, aqueous phase (avoid interphase material) and repeat steps 5-7. (Total of 4 Phenol/CHCl3 extractions. Do not worry if phase is pink.)
8) After second extraction add 6µl of 4mg/ml proteinase K solution (Roche) and incubate for 10 min at 65°C.
9) Repeat the steps 6-8 twice.
10) Transfer the upper, aqueous phase to a new tube.
11) Extract the upper with 400µl CHCl3/Isoamyl Alcohol to reduce phenol concentration.
12) Centrifuge 2,5 minutes @ 12000g.
13) Take upper, aqueous phase and transfer to a new 1,5ml tube.

Always work with a measuring cylinder !
Take a 1L flask and fill in:
- 10 g Bactotryptone
- 10 g NaCl
- 5 g Bactoyeast
- Add 500 ml Millipore H2O and dissolve the three substances.
- While dissolving, prepare 19 or 20 100 ml flasks and fill in 0,75 g Agar (0,015 g Agar/ml).

- As soon as the substances are dissolved in 500 ml millipore H2O add another 500 ml.
- Then fill 50 ml LB-medium in each 100 ml flask and autoclave it.
Competent E.coli cells
Production of competent E-coli-cells
Work always sterile and cold and speedy!
- All volumes deal with the common cell line!
- The cooling-centrifuge is in the tool shed , cool down to 4°C early enough, close the lid correctly!
- Prepare early enough min. 100 Eppis (1,5μl) (per cellline) and cool down to -80°C before using
- Use Milipore-filter for sterile CaCl2 , keep cool!
- prepare 15ml LB-Medium (or DYT) with the specific antibiotic (XL1-blue Tet, BL21 none!), inoculate and incubate over night
- prepare 200ml LB-Medium (or DYT) with the specific antibiotic, inoculate with 2ml of the over-night-culture. Nurture the culture until OD600 at 0,35 (0,2-0,5) (if the OD is too high, the cell won’t be competent)
- keep cell suspension in sterile falcons (50ml) 20 min on ice, then centrifuge for 20min; 4°C; 2500g
- discard supernatant, carefully resuspend on ice with 10ml cold CaCl2-solution (put a little of the 10ml solution in every falcon before!), pool every resuspended aliquot of one cell line and add 10ml CaCl2-solution (total volume 20ml). Keep 30 min on ice, then centrifuge for 20min; 4°C; 2500g

Make DNA Ladder Mix (Gene Ruler, Thermo Scientific) ready to use
- if you work with Gelred DON`T follow the [http://www.fermentas.com/templates/files/tiny_mce/coa_pdf/coa_sm0331.pdf instructions from Thermo Scientific]! DNA-Ladder must be diluted 10x stronger because Gelred is very sensitiv. In the end the DNA Ladder must be diluted 1:60 in 1x Loading Dye Solution.
Example: Mix 10 µl DNA Ladder, 120 µl 5x Loading Dye Solution and 470 µl deionized wather --> 600 µl Ladder ready to use
