Product Name
Ezh2 ORF Vector (Rat) -
Unit
1.0 µg DNA -
Description
The Ezh2 ORF Vector holds the gene (cloned by a restriction enzyme-independent method) between an AflII and EcoRV cut site. Inserts are flanked by and can be excised using AflII and EcoRV as long as inserts do not contain any internal AflII and EcoRV sites. In the case that the insert contains these internal cut sites, the end user can PCR amplify the insert with preferred restriction sites for subcloning. -

-
Verify plasmid quality: Confirm the plasmid is intact, at sufficient concentration, and free of contaminants (e.g., salts, ethanol, nucleases).
-
Check the host strain: Use a suitable cloning strain (e.g., recA⁻/endA⁻ such as DH5α) and confirm cells are competent and not expired.
-
Confirm selection conditions: Make sure the correct antibiotic is used at the proper concentration and that plates/media are fresh.
-
Review transformation conditions: Ensure the transformation method (chemical or electrocompetent) and recovery time are appropriate.
-
Assess plasmid compatibility: Large, low-copy, toxic, or unstable plasmids may require specialized strains or growth conditions.
-
Inspect growth conditions: Verify incubation temperature, shaking speed, and culture time.
-
Check plasmid sequence/features: Look for toxic genes, strong promoters, or repeats that may reduce stability.
We recommend transforming abm’s plasmids into our ProClone™ Competent Cells (Cat. No. E003). The ProClone™ Competent Cells are high-efficiency chemically competent DH5α (E. coli) cells ideal for routine plasmid amplification due to its high yield, rapid growth, and high transformation efficiency, with recA⁻ and endA⁻ mutations that ensure plasmid stability and high DNA quality. Other common compatible cloning strains include TOP10 (DH10B derivatives).
2. Gently streak the cells onto an agar plate containing the correct antibiotic selection in order to achieve single isolated colonies.
3. Place the plate “agar side up” and incubate at 37°C overnight.
4. Select a single colony from the plate for downstream applications, such as an overnight broth culture and grow E. coli to late exponential-early stationary phase. 4a. The broth culture can be subjected to miniprep plasmid extraction. We recommend using abm’s Column-Pure Plasmid Miniprep Kit (Cat. No. G4003). 4b. The broth culture can be used to prepare a glycerol stock for long-term storage. Mix culture with sterile glycerol to a final concentration of 15% and store at -80°C.
