Protocol describes how to set up microdrop cultures to produce embryos which can then be used for making chimeras. The microdrop culture should be set up several hours to 1 day before the experiment to permit temperature and gas equilibration. - [Read Setting Up Microdrop Cultures Protocol]
Protocol for the transformation of Aspergillus niger. This procedure is done by first digesting the outer cell wall, forming protoplasts, and then by making holes in the membrane
through which the dna can enter using calcium chloride and polyethylene glycol. Includes: Protocol for making A.niger protoplasts; Transformation; Plating. - [Read Transformation of Aspergillus niger Protocol]
This protocol a protocol on how to generate transfected embryonic stem (ES) cell clones. The previous protocol in this series is the Protocol for Electroporation of ES cells. The next protocol in the series is the Protocol on Disaggregation, Expansion, and Freezing of Transfected ES Clones.
This protocol describes the electroporation of the BMH 81-17 mut S strain that is recommended for tranformation of the site directed mutagenesis of dsDNA (See Protocol on Site-Directed Mutagenesis on Double Stranded DNA). BMH 81-17 mut S are a mismatch repair defective (mut S) Escherichia coli strain. The probability that the two mutations will cosegregate during the first round of DNA replication is increased in this strain.
The protocol gives general considerations for the design of targeting vectors for transgenic mice. The protocol shares tips in the design of knock-out and knock-in vectors and some of their strategies for producing homologously recombined embryonic stem cells.
