Phi80 Integration Protocol
From GcatWiki
- Prepare chemically competent cells of the strain you want to integrate into
- Transform in pInt80-649, plate on amp at 30 degrees
- Pick a single colony, grow a starter ON
- Dilute 200uL to 5mL, grow at 30 degree to mid log
- Do another chemically competent cell prep
- Transform in the phi80 CRIM plasmid you wish to integrate
- Rescue 1 hr in LB, plate on gentamicin at 37
- swab the plate and outgrow in 5mL LB+gentamicin to saturation
- restreak on LB+gentamamicin at 37 degrees
