The invention relates to the technical field of competent
escherichia coli cell preparation, and discloses a preparation method of competent
escherichia coli cells for
gene transformation, which comprises the following steps: step 1, strain activation; step 2, strain amplification culture; step 3, low-temperature suspension and washing: transferring the bacterial liquid into a pre-cooling centrifugal tube, standing on ice, then centrifuging, discarding supernate, adding a pre-cooled CaCl2 solution, gently resuspending, placing on ice, and then centrifuging; step 4, preparation of a competent suspension: removing the supernatant, adding a precooled CaCl2 solution containing
glycerol, slightly suspending thalli, and standing on ice for 3-5 minutes to prepare a
competent cell suspension; the
mass fraction of
glycerol in the CaCl2 solution containing
glycerol is 15%; the concentration of CaCl2 is 0.05 mol / L; and step 5, sub-packaging and
cryopreservation: sub-packaging the obtained competent suspension, and cryopreserving at-80 DEG C. According to the scheme, by optimizing the concentration of CaCl2 and glycerol in the suspension, the suspension temperature and the like, the conversion efficiency, the storage period and the
cell membrane stability are effectively improved.
