Procedure

1. Grab neat formamide and sterile water
2. Label 12 PCR tubes 1-12 and the 13th one place at least 33ul of neat formamide inside, can put excess in
3. Pipet appropriate amount of formamide and sterile water into the labeled PCR tubes according to number
4. In a sterile environment, pipet the liquid (50ul) from the PCR tube into the well cell as well as 50ul of the wild yeast cells
5. Incubate assess tray at 30 degrees Celsius for 24 hours and record data

Knockout Yeast Cell Gene

Materials

• Neat formamide,
• Sterile water
• 0.2ml flat cap PCR tube 10
• Well plate
• Knock out yeast cells

Procedure

1. Grab neat formamide and sterile water 2. Label PCR tubes 1-9 3. Pipet approximately --- formamide into a PCR tube, can put excess in 4. Pipet 3.0ul of formamide into each of the numbered PCR tubes 5. Pipet 47.0ul of sterile water into each of the numbered PCR tubes 6. In a sterile environment, pipet 50ul of liquid from the PCR tubes into well cells. Pipet 50ul of each knockout strain into the approperiate well cells 7. Incubate assess tray at 30 degrees Celsius for 24 hours and record data
