DNA Plasmid Prep.

This is a scaled up version of the Baron protocol which has been modified to achieve purity comparable to CsCl preps. I have not sorted out strain variations yet but HB101 works well.

Procedure

• Spin down 5 ml of a overnight culture in 3 eppendorf tubes at 14K and pool the samples by resuspending in 200 ml Solution I containing 1 mg/ml Lysozyme (Sigma #L6876) on ice.

• Immediately add 400 ml Solution II, followed by 300 ml Solution III and spin at 14K for 5-10'.

• Following the spin, remove 600-700 ml of the supernatant and add 500 ml phenol/chloroform; mix and spin at 14K for 5'.

• Remove 600 ml supernatant, top off with cold EtOH and spin 10' at room temperature.

• Wash with 80% EtOH, dry and resuspend in 60 ml TE plus 1 ml RNaseA (10mg/ml); incubate at 37° for 10'.

• Add 50 ml phenol/chloroform and spin for 2', remove 50 ml supernatant and add 10 ml 5 M NaCl plus 21 ml 40% PEG 8000.

• Incubate on ice 5', spin 5' at room temperature and resuspend in 90 ml Q (for pUC ori I get approx. 0.2-0.5 mg/ml).
