Wild Type Yeast
5 Knockout Yeast
Protocol
1. Obtain 10 different concentrations of the G418 antibiotic and sterile water. Make sure to have 1 extra concentration of sterile water as a control growth curve of the wild type yeast.
2. Set up 11 wells shown in the "Well Components".
3. Put the well plate to the reader and read for 24 hours.
4. Observe the the growth curves.
5. Determine which concentration should be used on the knockout yeast.
Concentrations Used
1. 100mg/ml G418
- 200ul G418
-0ul water
2. 33.3mg/ml G418
-66.7ul G418
-133.3ul water
3. 11.1mg/ml G418
-22.2ul G418
-177.8ul water
4. 3.7mg/ml G418
-7.4ul G418
-192.6ul water
5. 1.23mg/ml G418
-2.5ul G418
-197.5ul water
6. 0.41mg/ml G418
-1.6ul G418
-398.4ul G418
7. 0.41mg/ml G418
-1.1ul G418
-800ul water
8. 0.0456mg/ml G418
-1.4ul G418
-3,000ul water
9. 0.0152mg/ml G418
-1.5ul G418
-10,000ul water
10. 0.0050mg/ml G418
-1.0ul G418
-20,000ul water
11. 0mg/ml G418 (control)
-0ul G418
-200ul water
Note: For concentrations 6-10, serial dilutions were made. This is because the amount of G418 used would have been to small to physically preform.

Protocol
1. Obtain the concentration of the G418 antibiotic and sterile water from the calibration protocol.
2. Set up 12 wells.
3. In the well plates there will be 2 of the same components. (There are 5 KO yeasts and 1 wild type)
4. Put the well plate to the reader and read for 24 hours.
5. Observe the the growth curves.
