Pf0-1 Pseudomonas Fluorescens Electrocompetency Prep
- Innoculate 6 mL of liquid LB or Pseudomonas Minimal Media with Pf0-1 and grow overnight
- Split overnight into 1.5 mL aliquots and centrifuge at 16,000x g, discard supernatant
- Resuspend cell pellet with 1 mL of 300 mM sucrose in water solution
- Centrifuge at 16,000x g and discard supernatant
- Repeat resuspension and centrifuge step
- Resuspend cell pellet with 50 uL or 100 uL 300 mM sucrose in water solution
Pf0-1 Pseudomonas Fluorescens Electroporation
- Retrieve a 50 uL or 100 uL vial of electrocompentence prepped cells
- Add 2 uL of DNA directly into vial of cells and mix by flicking
- Transfer mixture to a 2 mm Electroporation cuvette
- On BioRad Gene Pulser, pulse with 2.5 kV, 200 Ohm, 25 uF settings
