4. Dissolve in nanopure water and adjust pH to 6.7 with KOH or HCl. The add MnCl2 to 55mM and adjust final volume. Sterilize by filtration with 0.45 µ filter. Store at 40C
 
-
b. Cells were cultured on LB agar plate overnight at 370C.
 
-
c. 10-12 colonies were cultured in 250ml SOB medium.
 
-
d. It was incubated at 370C for 1hour. Then the flasks were transferred to 190C. It was incubated toll OD600 reached 0.5
 
-
e. Flask was placed in ice for 10min.
 
-
f. The cells were pelleted down by spinning at 4000rpm for 10min at 40C.
 
-
g. Cells were resuspended in 80ml ice cold TB(Transformation Buffer) and stored on ice for 10min.
 
-
h. It was centrifuged again at 4000rpm for 10min at 40C.
 
-
i. Pellet was resuspended in 20ml of TB with 1.5ml DMSO.
 
-
j. Final volume was aliquoted into microcentrifuge tubes (100-500µl) and stored at -800C.
