Plasmid Isolation from Yeast
Reagents and Materials Required
The YEASTMAKER Yeast Plasmid Isolation Kit (#K1611-1) provides the SDS and lyticase solutions, CHROMA SPIN-
1000 DEPC-H2O Columns, and 2-ml centrifuge tubes for use with the columns.
• Appropriate SD liquid or agar medium to keep selection on the plasmids (Appendix C.A;
Appendix E).
• Sterile, 1.5-ml microcentrifuge tubes (or a 96-tube microtiter array, multichannel pipettors, and
centrifuge adaptor for multiwell plates).
• 20% SDS
• Lyticase Solution (5 units/ml in TE buffer; store at 4°C for up to 2 months or at –20°C for up to
6 months. If colloidal material precipitates, mix the solution by inversion before using.)
• Recommended: CHROMA SPIN-1000 DEPC-H2O Columns (#K1334-1) and 2-ml centrifuge
tubes for use with the columns
• If you do not use CHROMA SPIN Columns, you will need materials to perform phenol:chloroform
extraction and ethanol precipitation:
• Phenol:chloroform:isoamyl alcohol (25:24:1; See Sambrook et al., 1989, for information on
preparing neutralized phenol solutions)
• 10 M ammonium acetate
• 95–100% ethanol

1.Prepare yeast cultures for lysis (Step a, b, or c below).
a. From a solid patch of growth:
i. Spread a thin film of yeast cells (~2-cm2 patch) onto the appropriate SD agar medium.
ii. Incubate plate at 30°C for 3–4 days. (The patch should show abundant yeast growth.)
iii. Scrape up a portion of the patch (~10 mm2) and resuspend the cells in 50 ml of sterile
H2O or TE in a 1.5-ml microcentrifuge tube.
b. From a liquid culture:
i. Inoculate a large (2–4-mm), fresh (2–4-day-old) yeast colony into 0.5 ml of the
appropriate SD liquid medium. Vortex tube vigorously to completely break up the colony
and resuspend the cells.
ii. Incubate at 30°C overnight with shaking at 230–250 rpm.
iii. Spin down the cells by centrifuging at 14,000 rpm for 5 min.
iv. Carefully pour off the supernatant and resuspend pellets in the residual liquid (total
volume ~50 ml).
c. For semi-automated handling of a large number of samples:
i. Place a large (2–4-mm), fresh (2–4-day-old) yeast colony into 0.5 ml of the appropriate
SD liquid medium in separate wells of a 96-tube microtiter array. Vortex each tube
vigorously to resuspend the cells. (Alternatively, use 0.5 ml of an overnight SD liquid
culture instead of a yeast colony.)
ii. Using a centrifuge adapted for multiwell plates, centrifuge the entire array at 1,000 x g
for 5 min to pellet the cells.
iii. Carefully pour (or draw) off supernatants and resuspend pellets in the residual medium
(~50 ml) by vortexing or pipetting up and down.
2. Add 10 ml of lyticase solution to each tube. Thoroughly resuspend the cells by vortexing
or repeatedly pipetting up and down.
3. Incubate tubes at 37°C for 30–60 min with shaking at 200-250 rpm.
[Optional] Check a drop of the cell suspension under a phase contrast microscope (400X) for the progress of
cell lysis by adding a drop of 20% SDS to the side of the coverslip. As they come into contact with the SDS, most
cells should lose their refractile appearance and appear as "ghost-like" spheroplasts. If there are still many intact
cells present, incubate the samples for another 30 min.
4. Add 10 ml of 20% SDS to each tube and vortex vigorously for 1 min to mix.
5. Put the samples through one freeze/thaw cycle (at –20°C) and vortex again to ensure
complete lysis of the cells.
6. If necessary, samples can be stored frozen at –20°C. If samples have been frozen, vortex
them again before using them.
7. Pour the entire contents of the tube from Step 5 above onto a prespun CHROMA SPIN-
1000 Column and purify the plasmid DNA according to the CHROMA SPIN User Manual.
Purified plasmid DNA will elute from the column.
If you do not use CHROMA SPIN Columns, clean up the prep as follows:
a. Bring the volume of the sample up to 200 ml in TE buffer (pH 7.0).
b. Add 200 ml of phenol:chloroform:isoamyl alcohol (25:24:1).
c. Vortex at highest speed for 5 min.
d. Centrifuge at 14,000 rpm for 10 min.
e. Transfer the aqueous (upper) phase to a fresh tube.
f. Add 8 ml of 10 M ammonium acetate and 500 ml of 95–100% Ethanol.
h. Place at –70°C or in a dry-ice/ethanol bath for 1 hr.
i. Centrifuge at 14,000 rpm for 10 min.
j. Discard supernatant and dry the pellet.
k. Resuspend pellet in 20 ml of H2O.
Note: The amount of plasmid DNA recovered is small relative to the contaminating genomic DNA;
therefore, it cannot be measured by A260 or seen on an agarose gel.
