Things we did today
Wetlab work
Verification of transformants
- Grace
DNA | Plate | Total colony forming units | Blue colonies |
---|---|---|---|
BB-pRL1383a + J33207 | LB + sp100 + sm50 + IPTG (1mM) + X-gal (2mM) | 105 | 0 |
BB-pRL1383a + J33207 | LB + sp100 + X-gal (2mM) | 44 | 0 |
BB-pRL1383a (negative control) | LB + sp100 + sm50 + IPTG (1mM) + X-gal (2mM) | 44 | 0 |
no DNA (negative control) | LB + sp100 + sm50 + IPTG (1mM) + X-gal (2mM) | 0 | 0 |
- X-gal did not work?
- Colony PCR to verify insert
- ~320bp band is due to pRL1383a plasmid
- BB-pRL1383a + J33207 bands are smaller than (-) control bands, potential success in replacing GFP w/ lac device
- (-) bands due to contamination
- Restreaked colonies to purify
- Grew up colonies in TB+sp100 liquid media for plasmid prep on Tuesday
