| - | <ol>
| |
| - | <li>Inoculate one colony from LB plate into 2 ml LB liquid medium. Shake at 37 °C
| |
| - | overnight.</li>
| |
| - | <li>Inoculate 1-ml overnight cell culture into 100 ml LB medium (in a 500 ml flask).</li>
| |
| - | <li>Shake vigorously at 37 °C to OD600 ~0.25-0.3.</li>
| |
| - | <li>Chill the culture on ice for 15 min. Also make sure the 0.1M CaCl2
| |
| - | solution and 0.1M CaCl2 plus 15% glycerol are on ice.</li>
| |
| - | <li>Centrifuge the cells for 10 min at 5000 g at 4°C.</li>
| |
| - | <li>Discard the medium and resuspend the cell pellet in 30-40 ml cold 0.1M CaCl2. Keep the cells on ice for 30 min.</li>
| |
| - | <li>Centrifuge the cells as above.</li>
| |
| - | <li>Remove the supernatant, and resuspend the cell pellet in 6 ml 0.1 M CaCl2
| |
| - | solution plus 15% glycerol.</li>
| |
| - | <li>Pipet 0.4-0.5 ml of the cell suspension into sterile 1.5 ml micro-centrifuge tubes. Flash freeze these tubes in liquid nitrogen and then transfer them to the -80 C freezer.

| |
| - | Note: Successful transformations have occured with 100uL of cells + 1ug of DNA, however the efficency of cells made through this process is lower than that of Subcloning Efficency DH5a from Invitrogen. After flash freezing, competency of cells prepared through this protocol increases over time with additional storage time in -80°C for approximately 3 days.
