An improved method is described for the efficient production of M13 phage and M13 single-stranded (ss)DNA in a relatively short time period. Infection of E. coli (F') cells with as few as 5 phage particles can yield 10(12) phage particles/mL in 3 hours if the cells are grown in LB broth or SOB broth supplemented with about 5 mM Mg2+. The method tolerates large variations in the initial multiplicity of infection (5-5000 phage per 5 x 10(7) cells) and still yields about 10(12) phage particles/mL. These amounts are sufficient to purify 10-15 micrograms of ssDNA and to carry out at least 10-15 DNA sequencing reactions.
本文描述了一种改进方法,可在相对较短的时间内高效生产M13噬菌体和M13单链(ss)DNA。如果在补充了约5 mM Mg2+的LB肉汤或SOB肉汤中培养细胞,用少至5个噬菌体颗粒感染大肠杆菌(F')细胞,3小时内可产生10(12)个噬菌体颗粒/毫升。该方法可耐受初始感染复数的大幅变化(每5×10(7)个细胞5 - 5000个噬菌体),仍可产生约10(12)个噬菌体颗粒/毫升。这些产量足以纯化10 - 15微克的ssDNA,并进行至少10 - 15次DNA测序反应。
