26. Title: ylic133 and ylic136 transformation with bem3d::NAT#

26.1. Date#

04122020-09122020

26.2. Objective#

  • To get the following mutants for SATAY:

    • \(\Delta\)bem3 in the WT background

    • \(\Delta\)bem3 in the \(\Delta\)nrp1 background

26.3. Method#

  • Yeast Transformation Protocol

  • Culture 10ml of from each strain from glycerol stock (the afternoon before today) in YPD+6xADE to avoid adenine deficiencies.

  • OD measurement -ylic133: 3.15 -ylic136: 1.24

  • I did not dilute them , so continue with this because they were in log phase. (In the morning they were not dense at all)

  • Amount of DNA added: 10ul -> 10uL*260ng/uL=2.6ug

  • I included one negative control per strain

  • Recovery time : 1h 20mins

  • Plate the whole culture in the selection plates: YPD+NAT+6xADE

    • 1mL plated after recovery without any dilution.

26.4. Results#

26.5. Conclusion#

  • High efficient transformation :)

  • The negative controls have some colonies, very localized in one place, which could mean that in that region there was not enough NAT. I spread NAT with glass beads.

26.6. Next steps#

  • Culture single colonies (6) per strain to freeze in glycerol stocks to check later their integration with PCR.

    • Only 1 colony from the 6 colonies has densely grown after 24 hours in 30C incubation. I stored that one from each strain in glycerol stocks.

    • I stored the plates with the transformants and the restreaking of dbem3dnrp1 single colonies to regrow them after January. (coming back from my holidays :D)
