1 G418 Protocol and Selection Guide Background G418 is routinely used in gene selections to screen for resistant mammalian cells which express the neo gene. The neo gene encodes amino-glycoside 3 -phosphotransferase; an enzyme which renders the cell resistant to G418. For gene selection applications, a kill curve can be made to determine the minimum effective G418 concentration to kill non-resistant cells. Preparation and storage Generally it is easiest to dissolve the entire container of G418 at once (especially if it is a small 1g container). Calculate the amount of PBS to add to the vial to get a 200mg/ml 'active' concentration. o For example: 710μg/mg means that 710μg out of 1000μg are active, or that the Geneticin is 71% active. Therefore, to make a stock solution of 200mg/ml active Geneticin you need to add 1000/710*200= mg/ml of Geneticin. The vial contains 1g of Geneticin, so you need to dissolve the contents of the vial in 1000mg/ mg=3.55ml total volume. Sterile filter the drug using a syringe and a 0.45μm filter. Store stock at -80 C and working stock solution at 4 C Mammalian Cell Culture Selection procedure for mammalian cells G418 sulfate is normally used at a concentration of 400 μg/ml. After transfection with a plasmid containing the neo gene, cells are incubated in their regular growth containing G418 to select for stable transfectants hours post-transfection, pass cells (direct or diluted) in fresh containing G418 at the appropriate concentration. a) Note: Antibiotics work best when cells are actively dividing. If the cells become too dense, the antibiotic efficiency will decrease. It is best to split cells such that they are not more than 25% confluent. 2. Remove and replace antibiotic containing every 3-4 days 3. Evaluate cells for the formation of foci after 7 days of selection. Foci may require an additional week or more to develop depending on the host cell line and transfection/selection efficiency.

2 4. Transfer and pool 5-10 resistant clones to a 35mm cell culture plate and maintain on selection for an additional 7 days. This pooled culture will be expanded for subsequent cytotoxicity assays.
