Protocol for 96-well confirmation Yeast PCR. Includes: Clonal purification; Generate a master plate (96-well format); Making a frozen backup stock; Confirmation PCR for one Row; ORF Specific Confirmation PCR --> "A-B" primers (upstream junction); Transfer template DNA to multiwell PCR plate; Prepare and dispense master mix for A-B PCR. - [Read 96-Well Confirmation Yeast PCR Protocol]
Bacterial colonies growing on agar plates are transferred en masse to nitrocellulose filters. The spatial arrangement of colonies on the plates is preserved on the filters. After transfer, the filters are processed for hybridization to an appropriate radiolabeled probe while the original (master) plate is incubated for a few hours to allow the bacterial colonies to regrow in their original positions. - [Read Screening Bacterial Colonies by Hybridization: Intermediate Numbers Protocol]
Protocol used to screen a small number of bacterial colonies (<200) that are dispersed over several agar plates and are to be screened by hybridization to the same radiolabeled probe. The colonies are gridded onto a master plate and onto a nitrocellulose or nylon filter laid on the surface of a second agar plate. - [Read Screening Bacterial Colonies by Hybridization: Small Numbers Protocol]
