2/15/2013 background on transformation of bacterium with pGLO plasmid Experiment 5 aim Purpose of this lab is to have plasmid activity transformed Material bacterium starter plate, pGLO DNA Plasmid, microcentrifuge subways, Ice, water bath, CaCl2 break solution, (LB) agar-agar plate, (LB/ angstrom unit) agar plate, (LB/Amp/ara) agar plate, Micropipette, and Micropipette tips. Method Genetic transformation is a number which is done by pickings genes from one organism and putting them in another organism.A gene is a go of DNA that instruct for making a new protein and from this protein organism a current trait. A gene is inserted into an organism in order to change the organisms trait. This procedure lab is divided into two day lab. On day one, we started the procedure with getting agar plate where HB101 bacteria were growing for 24 hours at 37C. We began by first labeling two microtubes one with (+pGLO) and game with (-pGLO). 250ul of transformation solution which we used (CaCl2) was channel to all(prenominal) tubes and fixed those tubes on shabu.HB101 bacteria single village was picked by apply unfruitful inoculation loop and immersed into (+pGLO) tube and later immersed into (-pGLO) utilise same technique. twain time we used different sterile inoculation loop. The tubes were move back into the ice rink after mixing well the colony each time. The pGLO plasmid DNA was added by the instructor into (+pGLO) not into (-PGLO) tube and rigid the tube back into ice. The tubes were incubated on ice for 10 minutes. Once done incubating twain tubes were performed heat shocks at 42 spirit level C temperature for 50 second.Both tubes were immediately placed into the ice for another 2 minutes. aft(prenominal) 2 minutes, 250ul of LB broth was added to each tube and again incubated for 10 minutes at room temperature. Once the incubation was done, we transferred 100ul of cell fracture to the plates which was provided by using the table LB/Amp LB/Am p/ara LB/Amp LB (+pGLO) (+pGLO) (-pGLO) (-pGLO) Once the cell suspension was transferred, cells were gently spread 10 swipes using inoculation loop on the agar and rotated the plate 45 degree. The plates were placed into incubator at 37 degrees by turning he tubes upside put through and taping them. Result
