7.0Note:Competent cells are fragile (cell wall is thought to be weakened),therefore treat the cells gently when preparing these cells.Do not vortex or pippette up and down to resuspend the cells.Do not spin the cells at too great a speed (spinning down at 5000g will cause some cells to lyse).Always keep the cells chilled when making competent cell.Do not let them warm up.Freezing the cells appear to make cells more competent.Some cell strains may work better than others (DH5alpha works well in my hand).Note also that some cells (e.g.HB101)has greater recombination activity than others.This method doesnt appear to work with BL21,so just grow the cells at 30 or 37 when making BL21 competent cells.However,it has been suggested that the efficiency of BL21 prepared using Inoue method may be improved by treating it with DTT before freezing (add to 3.5% v/v of a 2.2M DTT,10mM KAc pH6 solution and incubate 10 minutes on ice).Heat shock time should be determined for different strains of cell.For DH5alpha or JM109 use 30-45 sec.For BL21 use 120 sec.Deactivate ligase prior to transformation.Ligase may reduce transformation efficiency.Diluting the ligation mixture (5x)can also increase transformation efficiecy by reducing the amount of reagents/contaminants that may affect transformation.Likewise it has been suggested that phenol/chloroform treatment may also increase efficiency,but it is probably too much trouble to bother trying.The DNA added should not be more then 5% of the volume of competent cells used.The final DNA concentration should not exceed 5 ng/l.The method above should give a transformation efficiency of more than 108 cfu per g of plasmid DNA (pUC or pBluescripts)with over 109 cfu possible.Transformation efficiency has a roughly inverse relationship with the size of plasmids.Cells with deoR mutaion (e.g.DH5alpha)can improved the transformation of large plasmid.Relaxed plasmids has 3/4 of the transformation efficiency of supercoiled plasmid.2 different plasmids can be transformed at the same time,or one after another.But they must be compatible (they cannot have the same replicon).For routine transformation whereby efficiency of transformation is of no import,some of the steps may be shorten or omitted.For example,heat-shock step may be unnecessary and recovery incubation time at 37 can be reduced or omitted (but do note that this may depends on the antibiotic used for selection-for ampicillin-type antibiotics the incubation time is not really that important,therefore you can plate the cells straight after heat-shock if you wish.for other antibiotics,however,the incubation time may be essential).Plating cells-dry 1.5% agar plates (exposed upside down)at 37 for 2-4 hours just before use,the plate should be able to soak up to 0.8-1 ml of media when plating.For blue-white selection,it is not necessary to make X-gal plate,just add X-gal+IPTG direct to cells,mix and then plate.Detergents may be detrimental to the transformability of the competent cells,therefore the glassware used for making competent cells should not be washed with detergents.Polycarbonate flask may also be used instead of glass flask.DMSO can dissolve polystyrene,therefore use polypropylene tubes.When cloning difficult and less stable sequence (e.g palindrome,repeats,LTR sequences),it helps to grow transform cells at lower temperatures (25-30 or room temperature)in very rich media (e.g.Terrific Broth).Also terminate growth before reaching late stationary growth phase when grown in liquid media (i.e harvest cells at OD550between 1 and 2).Use of stabilizing strain is also useful.There are other methods of making competent cells-e.g.CaCl2method,RbCl method which is more effective than CaCl2method.Electroporation is supposed to give higher efficiency (up to 1010 transformants per g plasmid claimed),but for the simple cloning that we do,its use is not warranted (and its more expensive,more trouble than its worth,etc.).If a cooling shaker is not available-grow the cells at room temperature.More discussions on making competent cell as well as references can be found in TIBS articles Preparing ltra-competent E.coli and Better competent
