Making electrocompetent cells:

1. Grow cells in 500 ml BSK II at 32 C to a cell density of 3-7 x 10⁷ cells/ml.


2. Harvest by centrifugation (4,000 x g, 20 min., 4 C). Wash twice in 60 ml cold PBS and pellet by centrifugation (3,000 x g, 10 min., 4 C).


3. Wash three times in 20 ml cold EPS and pellet by centrifugation (2,000 x g, 10 min., 4 C).


4. Resuspend the cells in 0.6 ml cold EPS.
