High-throughput rapid yeast DNA extraction: Application to yeast artificial chromosomes as polymerase chain reaction templates

An automation-assisted method enables DNA extraction of over a thousand yeast colonies in a day by one person. Yeast DNA is extracted essentially quantitatively in three steps: (a) cells are converted into spheroplasts with yeast lytic enzyme, (b) cells are lysed with proteinase K, and (c) DNA is co...

Zusammenfassung:An automation-assisted method enables DNA extraction of over a thousand yeast colonies in a day by one person. Yeast DNA is extracted essentially quantitatively in three steps: (a) cells are converted into spheroplasts with yeast lytic enzyme, (b) cells are lysed with proteinase K, and (c) DNA is collected by ethanol precipitation. The DNA stored at 4°C is active in polymerase chain reaction experiments for more than a year.
