YEAST PROTOCOLS


YEAST TRANSFORMATION
(Quick version for plasmid)

Preparation of solutions

1X TE/LiAc
Prepare fresh by using the 10X stock solutions provided with the kit. Dilutue in sterile dH2O
PEG/LiAc
Mix: 8 ml 50% PEG, 1 ml 10X TE, 10 ml 1M LiAc, all solutions provided with the kit

  • Inoculate one or two colonies ( max 2 weeks old, 2-3 mm in diameter) into 100 ul 1X TE/LiAc-solution. Vortex
  • Mix 0,2 ug plasmid with 100 ug herring testes carrier DNA (heat to ~100°C and cool before use) in an Eppendorf tube
  • Add the resuspended cells and mix well
  • Add 600 ul PEG/LiAc solution and vortex
  • Incubate for 30 minutes at 30°C with shaking
  • Add 70 ul DMSO and mix gently
  • Heatshock for 15 minutes in a 42°C waterbath
  • Plate the cells on selective media


YEAST DNA EXTRACTION PROTOCOL
(Lyticase protocol)

Lysis

  • Inoculate 3 ml of SD/-Leu/-Trp/-His with one yeast colony and grow over night (or up to two days) at 30°C with shaking
  • Spin down cells from 1,5 ml culture and resuspend in 500 ul lysis buffer
  • Incubate at 37°C for 60 minutes
  • Add 55 ul 10% SDS
  • Add 3 ul 10 mg/ml Proteinase K
  • Incubate at 56°C for 60 minutes

Extraction

  • Add 600 ul Phenol:Chloroform:Isoamylalcohol (25:24:1), vortex
  • Spin at 6000 rpm for 5 minutes
  • Transfer the upper phase to a clean tube

Precipitation

  • Add 1/10 vol of 3 M NaAc (pH 5,2) and 1 ml of 96% etanol
  • Incubate at -80°C for 15 minutes
  • Spin at 13 000 rpm for 10 minutes
  • Resuspend in 20-30 ul of dH2O

Extraction of single plasmid

Transform E.coli (electroporation or chemically competent) with up to 1 ul of the yeast prep and use appropriate selection media for the plasmid you wish to extract

Lysis buffer

50 mM Tris-HCl pH 7,5
10 mM EDTA
0,5% b-mercaptoetanol
25 U Lyticase
4 ul RNase A

PCR-SCREENING OF POSITIVE COLONIES

PCR-reaction

10x advantage buffer 2,5 ul
dNTP (2 mM) 2,5 ul
5'-primer 2,0 pmol
3'-primer 2,0 pmol
Yeast DNA prep 0,5 ul
Advantage 2 Polymerase   0,5ul
dH2O to 25 ul

      94°C for 30 sek
      68°C for 3 min
68°C for 3 min
soak at 15°C
