Electroporation-Mediated In Vitro Gene Delivery: An Electric Pulse Technique to Introduce Fluorescent Reporter Protein-Encoding Plasmids Into Cultured Cells
This video demonstrates the electroporation technique that introduces fluorescent protein-encoding plasmid DNA into mouse primary cerebellar granule cell precursors.
Protocol
1. Electroporation for Hh receptor transgene overexpression: pEGFP-Smo For electroporation using a 2 mm gap cuvette, prepare the following plasmid-cell electroporation mixture for each reaction of electroporation: 1.2 × 106 mouse primary cerebellar granule cell precursors cells and 10 µg of pEGFP-mSmo (adjust the DNA stock concentration to ~2-5 µg/µL in Tris-EDTA buffer or sterile dH2O) in 100 µL of Opti-MEM. <stro…
