Pro Tips
- Run at the larger scale
- ALWAYS kill it with PRoteinase K
- Transform 4 uL of the reaction
- Use ALL the transformation tricks
- Plate ALL of it
- ALWAYS run a PUC19 control for transformations
Instructions for newbies:
1.5 uL of 10 fmol/uL Dest
1.5 uL of 5 fmol/uL promoter
1.5 uL of 5 fmol/uL gene
1.5 uL of H2O
1.5 uL of LR clonase
Pipette up and down. Incubate at room temperature overnight.
Next day: Add 1.5 uL of proteinase K. Incubate for 15 minutes at 37C, then transform.
Instructions:
USE 3x VOLUME OF EVERYTHING (at least for now)
Use nanodrop to measure concentration of pEntry vectors, make 5 femtomolar working solution of each pEntry.

Combine into 1 aliquot:
- 1uL of 5 fmol/uL of pENTR_L4_Promoter_R1
- 1uL of 5 fmol/uL pENTR_L1_Gene_L2
- 1uL of 10 fmol/uL pDEST_R4_R2
- 3uL Total
WARNING: KEEP ALIQUOTED LR CLONASE MIX AT -80 AT ALL TIMES!
