Transformation "Ultra-Competent" E. coli (Inoue Method)

Inoue, H., H. Nojima, and H. Okayama. 1990. High efficiency transformation of Escherichia coli with plasmids. Gene 96 :23-28. Citation Abstract

Procedure

1. Inoculate from an overnight grown in LB.

2. Grow in 250 ml " SOB " at 18C until OD600 = 0.6.

2. On ice for 10 minutes.

3. Spin at 2500 x g (5000 rpm in a Sorvall GSA or 3000 rpm in a Beckman J-6B centrifuge) for 10 min. at 4C.

4. Resuspend cells gently in 80 ml of ice cold " TB ". 5. On ice for 10 minutes.

6. Spin at 2500 x g (5000 rpm in a Sorvall GSA, 5500 rpm in a Sorvall SS-34, or 3000 rpm in a Beckman J-6B centrifuge) for 10 min. at 4C.

7. Resuspend cells gently in 20 ml of ice cold "TB".

8. Add DMSO to a final concentration of 7%.

9. Place on ice for 10 minutes.

10. Aliquot into 1-2 ml and freeze in liquid nitrogen.

11. Store in liquid nitrogen.
