Protocols


Transformation

(estimated time: 3 hours and 30 min + 12-16 hours overnight incubation)

  • Put 1-2 µl of DNA resuspension or ligation into TOP10 tube (every tube contains approximately 60 µl of competent cells).
  • Incubate on ice for 30 min.
  • Heat shock: 42°C for 1 min.
  • Put transformed TOP10 tube on ice and then add 250 µl SOC medium.
  • Incubate 1 hour at 37°C, 220 rpm.
  • Plate 200 µl of the solution on a proper agar plate.
  • Incubate overnight at 37°C.







  • LB agar plates with proper antibiotic incubated at 37°C
  • Thawed Invitrogen TOP10 cells
  • Resuspended DNA
  • SOC medium
