Wetlab work

Construction of p+r + s(+gf)

Grace
EtBr stained 2% agarose gel ran at 47V for 2 hours. Thirty microliters of RE digest reaction were loaded into each well.
  • Ran last night's RE digest on gel
  • Could not resolve nir+rbs, plac+rbs, slr1, pilA (too little DNA? flanking bands also close to size of desired band)
  • Cut out slr1+GFPf, pilA+GFPf bands
  • Treated RE digested pSB1A3 with SAP
  • RE digest overnight:
  • EcoRI + SpeI:
  • nir+rbs (PCR product)
  • SpeI + PstI:
  • nir+rbs (plasmid prep)
  • plac+rbs (plasmid prep)
  • XbaI + PstI:
  • slr1 (PCR product)
  • pilA (PCR product)

Preparation for sequencing

Grace
  • plac + rbs colonies 1, 2, 10, 12 (#10 is potential successful transformant)
  • C0012 derived vector used in plac+rbs 3A ligation, dephosphorylated colony 2 and phosphorylated colony 1
  • slr1 + GFPf
  • pilA + GFPf, 8/12 and 8/13 transformations
