3 Introduction The UltraClean Standard Mini Plasmid Prep is based on the standard alkaline lysis technique used in most plasmid prep protocols. The kit uses the same reagents and volumes as in most competitor kits so you do not need to learn a new protocol. Our optimized reagents and shorter centrifuge times provide a protocol that is quicker and easier than others. Its silica spin filters purify and recover the highest possible yields of sequence quality plasmid. Compatible with LB and all high nutrient growth media, the UltraClean Standard Mini Plasmid Prep produces plasmids free of genomic DNA contamination. The DNA is concentrated enough to proceed directly with automated sequencing and can also be used in restriction digests, ligation, PCR and other downstream applications. Protocol Overview This kit will purify plasmid DNA from 1-5 ml of bacterial culture. Cells are lysed with an improved set of alkaline lysis reagents. Plasmid DNA is bound to a silica spin filter, washed once, and recovered in Tris buffer or water. The DNA is concentrated enough to proceed directly with any of the downstream applications listed in the introduction above. High Throughput Options MO BIO offers a vacuum based protocol for faster processing without centrifugation for the DNA binding and column washing steps for Spin Filters. The MO BIO PowerVac Manifold allows for processing of up to 20 spin filter preps at a time using the PowerVac Mini Spin Filter Adapters. For additional high throughput options MO BIO offers the UltraClean -htp 96 Well Plasmid Prep for processing up to 2 x 96 samples using a centrifuge capable of spinning two 96 Well Blocks stacked (13 cm x 8 cm x 5.5 cm) at 4500 x g. For 96 well homogenization MO BIO offers the 96 Well Plate Shaker and Plate Adapter Set (MO BIO Catalog# & 11999, respectively.) This kit is for research purposes only. Not for diagnostic use.

6 Detailed Protocol (Describes what is happening at each step) We highly recommend you read this information if this is your first time using the UltraClean Standard Mini Plasmid Prep. Please wear gloves at all times BEFORE THE FIRST USE OF ONLY, Solution 4 must be prepared. Add 83 ml of 100% ethanol. Mix well. Put a check mark in the ethanol added box on the bottle cap. 1. Grow cells (plasmid culture) to a typical density of A 600 = 2.0 or higher. 2. Each plasmid prep will require a set of two 2 ml and one Spin Filter unit (a plastic spin basket with a white silica membrane sitting inside a 2 ml Collection Tube). 3. Label the caps of each set with an ethanol resistant lab marker. It is convenient to place these sets in a microcentrifuge tube rack in this order: tube, Spin Filter, 2 ml Collection Tube. 4. Open the first tube in each set and add up to 2 ml of culture. If you are using high nutrient broth (terrific broth, TB DRY, 2 x YT, super broth, etc.), use no more than 2 ml of culture per prep. For LB or low nutrient cultures, you can use 2 ml or you can combine cells from up to 5 ml of culture. Do this by spinning 2 ml of cells, discarding the supernatant, adding more culture to the same tube and spinning again. Repeat until 5 ml worth of cells have been processed. Note: The yields of many low copy plasmids (containing large inserts), can be increased by growing in high nutrient broth such as TB DRY (MO BIO Catalog# ). 5. Orient the microcentrifuge the same way each time you spin them in all the following procedures so that the tube hinge is facing straight out away from the center of the rotor. 6. Centrifuge for 1 minute at 13,000 x g. What s happening: The bacterial cells are being forced to the bottom of the tube. 7. Decant the supernatant by inverting the tube and pouring into a waste container. You will need to do another spin to be sure to remove all traces of liquid from the sides of the tube as described in the next 3 steps. 8. Orient with the hinges in same position (hinges pointing straight out from center of rotor). 9. Centrifuge 5 seconds at 13,000 x g. 10. Remove all visible liquid with a narrow pipet tip. Removing all liquid at this step is critical. Using a small bore pipet tip helps remove all traces of liquid media. What s happening: The cells have been pelleted and are now separated from the culture growth medium. Removal of trace amounts of growth medium will ensure against dilution of the reagents in all following steps. 11. Add 100 l Solution 1 to each cell pellet tube and close the. 12. Resuspend the bacterial pellet by bump vortexing with the vortex set at the highest speed. Bump vortexing means: hold the tube tip on the vortex head for 10 seconds, take it off for 1 second then hold it on the vortex again. Repeat this process for 1 minute. After 1 minute, hold the tube in a 6

7 horizontal position up to a light and look at it. The liquid will spread from one end of the tube to the other. If you see any clumps of cells, keep bump vortexing until they are gone. It takes a minimum of 1 minute with the vortex at its highest speed to resuspend cells in the 100 l volume. Do two at a time when processing multiple preps for best efficiency. An alternative procedure is to scrape the tube tips back and forth over the holes of an 80 well microcentrifuge tube rack. This procedure is actually the subject of a paper in Biotechniques. Voo, K. S.; Jacobsen, B. M. BioTechniques 24: , February What s happening: The bacterial cells are re-suspended in a small volume of buffer that keeps them from breaking open (lysing). It is important to make this suspension of cells homogeneous because cells trapped in clumps will be resistant to lysis reagents. Solution 1 contains RNase A; however, it cannot digest RNA until the cells are lysed in the next step. 13. Check Solution 2. If precipitated, heat to C for 5 minutes to dissolve. Mix before use. What s happening: Solution 2 contains a detergent SDS that can precipitate if cooled. This precipitate is easy to re-suspend by heating. For this reason, always store this kit at room temperature (20-25 C). Solution 2 can be used while still warm. 14. Add 200 l Solution 2 to the cell suspension. What s happening: Alkaline cell lysis. Solution 2 is very alkaline (ph 12) and contains the detergent SDS. Addition of Solution 2 causes the bacterial cells to lyse because the proteins in the cell membrane become denatured similar to when you cook an egg. All DNA becomes denatured to its single stranded form at this point. The bacterial chromosomal DNA is long and is attached to broken pieces of the cell membrane. Plasmid DNA is linked so it forms two attached circles. Like two links of a chain. All RNA is digested during this very short step because RNase A is active even in very alkaline conditions. 15. Close all. 16. Gently invert the up to 8 times to mix. Do not vortex at this step. Vortexing will reduce the quality of your plasmid prep. It causes chromosomal DNA contamination by breaking pieces of the bacteria s chromosomal DNA which will then co purify with the plasmid DNA. 17. Add 400 l Solution 3. What s happening: Neutralization. Solution 3 contains potassium acetate and salt. The potassium acetate forms a precipitate when it interacts with SDS. At the same time denatured proteins co-precipitate with the SDS. Solution 3 neutralizes the alkaline ph to a more neutral ph 7. All DNA tries to re-nature. Plasmid can easily re-form to its double stranded form. Bacterial chromosomal DNA finds it difficult to re-nature because it has no reference point and homologous pieces of DNA may be blocked from finding each other by the cell debris present. 18. Close the and gently invert up to 8 times to mix. Do not vortex at this step. Vortexing causes chromosomal DNA contamination. 19. Centrifuge for 3 minutes at 13,000 x g minimum. What s happening: Dense cell debris is pelleted to the bottom of the tube. Chromosomal DNA is also pelleted along with the cell debris. 20. Remove the from the centrifuge. There should be a clear non viscous supernatant on top of a large white pellet stuck to the sides of the tube. If the pellet is not firm but instead it is loose or 7

8 gloppy, this is a clear indication you did not remove all the culture media when you originally pelleted the cells. You will need to start over in this case and be more careful to remove all the culture media. 21. Open the cap of as many Spin Filters as you have plasmid preps. 22. Transfer all of the clear liquid supernatant to a Spin Filter (avoid the white precipitate). Decanting is the best method here. Just turn the tube so that you pour away from the hinge. The white pellet will stay stuck to the side of the tube. Close the lids of the Spin Filters. 23. Centrifuge seconds at 10,000 x g. The liquid will flow through the white spin filter membrane leaving the plasmid DNA bound to the filter membrane. What s happening: The plasmid DNA now binds to the white silica membrane in the spin filter. Plasmid DNA binds due to the high salt conditions. Unwanted impurities such as digested RNA, and any other cell components that did not pellet are passed through the spin filter and end up in the flow through in the collection tube. This flow through is discarded. 24. Lift out the plastic spin filter basket from the 2 ml Collection Tube, discard the liquid from the 2 ml Collection Tube, and then replace the spin filter basket into the Collection Tube. Note: Do not let the liquid discarded from the Spin Filter Collection Tube come in contact with bleach. 25. Add 600 l Solution 4 to the Spin Filter. Close the lid. Note: If you have not added ethanol to before first use, do so now as described just before step 1. However, if you are using either or , Solution 4 already contains the required volume of ethanol; no additional ethanol needs to be added. 26. Centrifuge seconds at 13,000 x g. 27. Discard flow through liquid from the 2 ml Collection Tube, and centrifuge again for 1 minute at 13,000 x g. What s happening: Solution 4 washes the DNA that is bound to the spin filter. Solution 4 is an ethanol wash buffer. The ethanol keeps the plasmid DNA bound to the filter as impurities are washed away. 28. Being careful not to splash liquid on the filter basket, place spin filter basket in a new 2 ml Collection Tube (provided). 29. Add 50 l of Solution 5 or sterile water directly in the middle of the white spin filter membrane. Let stand for 1 minute. What s happening: Solution 5 is 10mM Tris. As it passes through the spin filter, the plasmid DNA is released (eluted) off the filter and it passes into the collection tube. The plasmid DNA is released because it will not stay bound to the spin filter when there is no salt present. 30. Centrifuge 1 minute at 10,000 x g. 31. Remove filter basket and close tube lid. Plasmid DNA in the 2 ml Collection Tube is now ready to use for any application. Thank you for choosing the UltraClean Standard Mini Plasmid Prep! 8

9 Short Protocol (Use only if you are already familiar with this kit) Note: Remember to orient with hinges pointing straight out from center of centrifuge rotor for all centrifuge steps. Please wear gloves at all times BEFORE THE FIRST USE OF ONLY, Solution 4 must be prepared. Add 83 ml of 100% ethanol. Mix well. Put a check mark in the ethanol added box on the bottle cap. 1. Pellet 2 ml of overnight culture by centrifuging for 1 minute at 13,000 x g. Decant liquid media and spin again for 5 seconds. Remove the remaining liquid media with a small bore pipet tip. 2. Resuspend cell pellets in 100 l of Solution 1. Bump vortex until the mixture is completely homogeneous and no clumps exist. 3. Add 200 l of Solution 2 and gently invert up to 8 times to mix. Do not vortex! This will cause shearing of the Genomic DNA. 4. Add 400 l of Solution 3 and gently invert up to 8 times to mix. The resulting solution will be cloudy. 5. Centrifuge for 3 minutes at 13,000 x g. 6. Transfer the supernatant to the Spin Filter unit. Avoid the white pellet. Decanting is the best method to transfer the supernatant. 7. Centrifuge seconds at 10,000 x g. Discard the flow through. 8. Add 600 l of Solution 4 to the spin filter unit. 9. Centrifuge for seconds at 13,000 x g. 10. Discard the flow through. Important: Centrifuge for 1 additional minute at 13,000 x g to remove the residual wash solution. 11. Transfer the spin filter basket to a 2 ml Collection Tube. Be careful not to splash any Solution 4 on the Spin Filter! 12. Add 50 l of Solution 5 or sterile water to the center of the spin filter membrane. Let stand at room temperature for 1 minute. Centrifuge for 1 minute at 10,000 x g. 13. Remove the spin filter basket, now the DNA is ready for any application. Thank you for choosing the UltraClean Standard Mini Plasmid Prep! 9

10 Vacuum Protocol using the PowerVac Manifold Please wear gloves at all times For each sample lysate, use one Spin Filter column. Keep the Spin Filter in the attached 2 ml Collection Tube and continue using the Collection Tube as a Spin Filter holder until needed for the Vacuum Manifold Protocol. Label each Collection Tube top and Spin Filter column to maintain sample identity. If the Spin Filter becomes clogged during the vacuum procedure, you can switch to the procedure for purification of the DNA by centrifugation. You will need to provide 100% ethanol for step 4 of this protocol 1. For each prep, attach one aluminum PowerVac Mini Spin Filter Adapter (MO BIO Catalog# or ) into the Luer-Lok fitting of one port in the manifold. Gently press a Spin Filter column into the PowerVac Mini Spin Filter Adapter until snugly in place. Ensure that all unused ports of the vacuum manifold are closed. Note: Aluminum PowerVac Mini Spin Filter Adapters are reusable if cleaned properly. 2. Transfer the 700 l of prepared sample lysate (from step 22 of the detailed protocol and step 6 from the short protocol) to the Spin Filter column. 3. Turn on the vacuum source and open the stopcock of the port. Hold the tube in place when opening the stopcock to keep the spin filter steady. Allow the lysate to pass through the Spin Filter column. Close the one-way Luer-Lok stopcock of that port. Note: If Spin Filter Columns are filtering slowly, close the ports to samples that have completed filtering to increase the pressure to the other columns. 4. Load 700 l of 100% ethanol into the Spin Filter so that it completely fills the column. Open the stopcock while holding the column steady. Allow the ethanol to pass through the column completely. Close the stopcock. 5. Add 600 l of Solution 4 to each Spin Filter. Open the Luer-Lok stopcock and apply a vacuum until Solution 4 has passed through the Spin Filter completely. Continue to pull a vacuum for another minute to dry the membrane. Close each port. 6. Turn off the vacuum source and open an unused port to vent the manifold. If all 20 ports are in use, break the vacuum at the source. Make certain that all vacuum pressure is released before performing the next step. It is important to turn off the vacuum at the source to prevent backflow into the columns. 7. Remove the Spin Filter column and place in the original labeled 2 ml Collection Tube. Place into the centrifuge and spin at 13,000 g for 1 minute to completely dry the membrane. 8. Transfer the Spin Filter column to a new 2 ml Collection Tube and add 50 l of Solution 5 to the center of the white filter membrane. Let stand at room temperature for 1 minute. Alternatively, sterile DNA-Free PCR Grade Water may be used for elution from the silica Spin Filter membrane at this step (MO BIO Catalog # ). 9. Centrifuge at room temperature for 30 seconds at 10,000 x g. 10

11 10. Discard the Spin Filter column. The DNA in the tube is now ready for any downstream application. No further steps are required. We recommend storing DNA frozen (-20 to -80 C). Solution 5 contains no EDTA. To concentrate the DNA see the Hints & Troubleshooting Guide. Thank you for choosing the UltraClean Standard Mini Plasmid Prep! 11

12 Hints and Troubleshooting Guide Concentrating the DNA Your final volume will be 50 l. If this is too dilute for your purposes, add 2 l of 5M NaCl and mix. Then add 100 l of 100% cold ethanol. Mix and incubate at C for 1 hour. Centrifuge at 10,000 x g for 10 minutes. Decant all liquid. Dry residual ethanol in a speed vac or desiccator or ambient air. Resuspend the precipitated DNA in the desired volume. Amount of Culture to Process Use 2-5 ml of LB culture. To get higher yields use TB DRY Powder Growth Media (MO BIO Catalog# 12105). To Combine Cells from up to 5 ml of LB Culture Centrifuge 2 ml of culture for 30 seconds in a 2 ml tube. Discard supernatant. Repeat until 5 ml of culture has been processed into one tube. Low Recovery Two common causes of low yields: 1. The media was not completely removed. In this case, the pellet that results from spinning, after Solution 3 has been added, is not a firm white pellet on the side of the tube. The pellet is loose and it tends to be difficult to remove any liquid cell lysate. If you see this, start the prep over and be very careful to follow the recommended way to remove the culture media below. A good method to remove all the culture media: This method requires two spins. Be careful to orient the in the rotor the same way each time you spin them. Insert the in the centrifuge rotor so that the cap hinge is pointed straight out away from the center of the rotor. The first spin (1 minute) will pellet the cells. The large volume of culture media can then be dumped into a waste receptacle (typically a bottle containing bleach) by inverting the tube. The cap should then be replaced and the oriented in the rotor the same way. The second spin (5 seconds) will push all the residual media from the walls and cap to the bottom of the tube. If the tube was oriented the same as the original spin, the pellet will be very tight and the media will be easy to remove with a pipet tip. The best tips to use for this are the drawn out kind used to load sequencing gels. The small bore tip end makes removing very small volumes easier however; regular tips can also be used. The cells can now be resuspended in Solution 1 (see the notes below). 2. The cell pellet was not completely resuspended. In this case, a low yield results because clumps of cells do not lyse efficiently. There are a few good ways to resuspend the cells properly. A. Bump the tube on the vortex every 10 seconds during the 1 minute of vortexing it will take to resuspend the cells. Bumping means hold the tube on the vortex head for 10 seconds, take it off for 1 second then hold it on the vortex again. After 1 minute, hold the tube in a horizontal position up to a light and look at it. If you see any clumps of cells, keep bump vortexing until they are gone. It takes a minimum of 1 minute with the vortex at its highest speed to resuspend cells in the 50 l volume. Do two at a time when processing multiple preps. B. There is a paper in Biotechniques 1 that explains how cells can be resuspended in 5 seconds by scraping a tube across the holes of an 80 well microcentrifuge tube rack. The tube is held firmly in hand and the tube tip is run across the holes rapidly back and forth. It s easy and all you need is an 80 well rack. (They are great for storing, most labs have them already). 1. Voo, K. S.; Jacobsen, B. M. BioTechniques 24: , February

13 Hints and Troubleshooting Guide cont If DNA Floats Out of Well When Loaded on a Gel Residual Solution 4 in is in the final sample. Prevent this by being careful not to transfer Solution 4 liquid onto the bottom of the spin filter basket. Ethanol precipitate to remove residual Solution 4. See concentrating DNA above. Cleaning of the PowerVac Mini Spin Filter Adapters It is recommended to rinse the PowerVac Mini Spin Filter Adapters promptly after use to avoid salt build up. To clean the PowerVac Mini Spin Filter Adapters, rinse each adapter with DI water followed by 70% ethanol and flush into the manifold base. Alternatively, remove the adapters and wash in laboratory detergent and DI water. PowerVac Mini Spin Filter Adapters may be autoclaved. Do not use bleach to clean the PowerVac Mini Spin Filter Adapters while attached to the PowerVac Manifold. Bleach should never be mixed with solutions containing guanidine and should not be used to clean the PowerVac Manifold. For more information on cleaning the PowerVac Manifold, please refer to the PowerVac Manifold manual. 13
