This is a protocol to do PCR reactions on E. coli cells, directly after a transformation. (See here for colony PCR for yeast cells)
Prepare mastermix, divide 19μl/sample over PCR reaction tubes/wells and add some fresh cells to the mix using pipette tips or toothpicks.
If you actually want to use these cells later, don't forget to maintain the cells on a fresh 'master plate' or in a 96 well plate.
Re-suspend cells for each colony in 50μl DNAse free water and then add 1μl of this mix to the reaction.
Do sequencing reaction: | |
---|---|
H2O | 15.4 μl |
Taq PCR Buffer 10X | 2 μl |
dNTPs (10 mM each) | 0.8 μl |
MgCl2 (50mM) | 0.8 μl |
Primer Fwd (10 μM) | 0.4 μl |
Primer Rev (10 μM) | 0.4 μl |
Taq polymerase (5U/μl) | 0.2 μl |
Run using program (bart -> colony PCR or cPCR)
Number of cycles | Temperature | Duration |
---|---|---|
1 X | 94°C | 2 min |
35X | 94°C | 30 sec |
52°C | 30 sec | |
72°C | 1 min 30 sec | |
1X | 72°C | 7 min |
