Yüksek verimlilik dönüşümü mikobakterilerin çalışma önemli bir sınırlama yoktur. Cinsi, Mycobacterium dönüştürmek için zor olabilir; özellikle kalın ve mumsu bir hücre duvarı neden olduğu, ancak en moleküler teknikler, Escherichia coli ve Bacillus subtilis olarak uzaktan ilgili türler için geliştirilmiştir sahip olduğu gerçeği ile birleşir. Bu engellere rağmen, mikobakteriyel plazmid tespit edilmiştir ve birçok mikobakteriyel türlerin DNA dönüşüm tarif edilmiştir. Mikobakteriler içine DNA tanıtmak için en başarılı yöntem elektroporasyon. Birçok parametreler başarılı bir dönüşüme katkıda bulunur; bu türlerin / gerilme, dönüştürücü DNA doğa, seçilebilir marker kullanılan, besi ve elektroporasyon darbe için gerekli koşulları içerir. Hem yavaş ve hızlı-yetiştiricisi dönüşümü için optimize edilmiş yöntemler burada ayrıntılı olarak açıklanmıştır. Dönüşüm verimliliği, farklı mikobakteriyel türler için ve çeşitli seçilebilir işaretleri ile rapor edilir.

Do you mean the cells just after electoporation? We had never tried that. However, you can preserve the competent cell in glycerol, though the effiiciay would be lower.

Hell I wanted to know if it would be possible to get a printable copy of the paper. I have some questions about the mediums in general. I appreciate your help!

I am trying to transform BCG by your protocol electroporation, but unfortunately we cannot find recombinant BCG colonies until now. What is the critical point in this protocol? Would you please send me a printable copy of the paper?

The cells must be actively and aerobically growing before transformation. As far as we can ascertain, there is no critical point in the protocol, we always follow the whole protocol to obtain good efficiencies. Have you made any modifications to the method?
I am afraid there is no printable copy of this article, it is by nature a video.

I'm studying in master's degree program and try (be tried) to transfer recombinant plasmid to Mtb H37Ra (modify from your protocol). I used kanamycin as selective marker and added amphotericin B + vancomycin to M7H11 but I still found fungal contamination. Question is how you managed your plate after spreaded? May you have some technique that not write in "Mycobacteria protocols". (I'm not seal plate, put them in plastic bag and bring them to 37C incubator.)

Does pretreatment of BCG with glycine help in increasing the transformation efficiency? Also how long can you grow BCG in presence of glycine before harvesting them?

It would be useful to my master Thesis, I am trying to knock out a gene, In this moment I am preparing my electrocompetent cells, next week I will perform the electroporation and I will back with some questions. thanks Dr.Tanya for your mail. greetings since Peru.

We are trying to integrate a RFP gene in pMV361 into Mtb H37Rv. After electropoaration we did get colonies on Kan plate, but the bacilli were not fluorescent unlike the ones we got after electropoartion with pMV261-RFP. What could be the reason?

Have you ensured that the plasmid existed in the obtained transformants? I mean theat the colonies maybe false positive. If your transformants did contain the plasmid, there maybe something wrong with the expression of the RFP protein. For example, the promoter of the RFP is not strong enough, thus the fluorescence could not be detected.

Dear Sir,
I have tried to electroporate M. smegmatis mc2 155 today by following this video and the protocols from your book, Mycobacteria protocols, 2nd edition. However, the time constant is quite low, just 6.9 ms so I guess my electroporation is likely unsuccessful. I were using the 7H9 medium to culture cells. Have you had any comments and suggestion for the low time constant and how I can improve this?
Can electoporated cells be preserved in glycerol?
