  • P48 (crtY using a new primer mixture) and P49 (recreation of P12, rbs+dxs) created. (CF)
  • Ligated putative cenA and putative cex fragments to Edinbrick 1(L28 and L29 respectively). All were digested with EcoRI/SpeI, purified and stored overnight in the 16°C water bath. (AM)
  • Repeated PCR for cenA and cex (P46, P47) from heat killed cell solution. Denaturing 95°C for 1 min, annealing 65°C for 10s, extension 70°C for 40s. Run on gel 30. Unsuccessful, perhaps because annealing temperature was too high (temperature was decided based on stock solution label, which took the prefix/suffix into consideration). (AM)
  • Digested M49 and M50 (pSB1A2-rbs+crtI) with a) XbaI, b) SpeI/XbaI, c) sac/speI, M63 (BABEL2+rbs+crtE) with a) EcoRI, b) EcoRI/PstI, M67 (pSB1A2+rbs+crtB) with a) EcoRI/PstI, b) sacI/speI and ran on gel 31 with P48 (crtY). (OG)
  • Re-digested M55-M60 (pSB1A2+PzntA) with a) EcoRI and b) EcoRI/PstI. (This time, the amount of DNA for digestion is increased) and ran on gel 32. Results look promising for M57, but not for the others. (Yan)
  • Purified P15 (rbs+appY) and P28 (crtB), digested each with Edinbrick1 using XbaI/PstI and set-up for ligations (L26 and L27). Stored overnight in the 16°C water bath. (HX)
  • Ligation of pSB1A2+rbs+dxs transformed to plates 69-70 and ligation of crtE to BABEL2 transformed to plates 71-72. (CF)
  • Colonies from plate 67 (pSB1A2+glgC-mut1,2) subbed to plate 73 and from plates 69-72 (pSB1A2+rbs+dxs and BABEL2+crtE) subbed to plate 74. (CF)
