10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0 (1M stock → 5 ml for 500 ml)
10 mM EDTA (0.5 M stock → 10 ml for 500 ml)
0.2% SDS (10% SDS stock → 10 ml for 500 ml)
100 mM NaCl (5 M stock → 10 ml for 500 ml)
0.2mg/ml Proteinase K (20mg/ml stock → 500 µl for 50 ml) add freshly!!!
incubate 6h at 55°C in humid chamber (plastic bag with wet paper) use incubator w/ shaker
add 10 µl 8M LiCl and 100 µl 100 % Isoprop
incubate o/n on shaker in humid chamber at RT (the longer the incubation the better the yield)
Day 29: day 2 of DNA prep
centrifuge 20 min at 3500 rpm, 4°C, 96-well plates will break at this speed (clean centrifuge)
discard supernatant (by tapping)
wash once with ice-cold 70% EtOH (pure, prechilled at -20°C)
centrifuge 10 min at 3500 rpm, 4!C
discard supernatant (by tapping)
dry plate (RT), do not overdry (→ if it does not smell like EtOH it´s good)
dilute DNA o/n in 50 µl low TE in humid chamber (55°C)
10 mM Tris-HCl, pH 8.0
0.1 mM EDTA (1mM in TE) autoclaved or sterile filtered
Day 30: Sequencing PCR
gel purification → elution in 20 µl ddH2O → use 5 µl per sequencing reaction
Alternatively to freezing down cells in the 96-well plate format, you may also freeze them in cryotubes in liquid nitrogen – much more work, but like that it is much more unlikely that you will lose good clones due to them not surviving the recovery from the 96-well-plate at -80°C. However, the DNA prep for genotyping should absolutely be done in the 96-well format via LiCl/isoprop as it is robust, cheaper and much less work than e.g. extracting DNA via a kit (columns)
