Things we did today

Wetlab work

Plasmid prep

Grace
  • Inoculated TB+sp100 with BB-pRL1383a for plasmid prep

PCR to verify plasmid preps

Grace
  • PCR of 3A:nrsg and 3A:nrpg13-8 plasmids

Construction of Secretion Device

Krystle
3A ligation of cut pSB1A3 with the following inserts:
  • nir + gfpf + tt #8
  • nir + gfpf + tt #17
  • nir + gfpf + tt #21
  • slr + gfpf + tt #8
  • slr + gfpf + tt #17
  • slr + gfpf + tt #21

Restreaked BB-pRL1383a plate

Grace

Transformation

Margaret

  • transformed ligation products in DH5-alpha

Drylab Work

Sequencing Analysis

Grace
  • Correct:
  • C0012V (sequence to see what it was): EcoRI/XbaI/SpeI/PstI sites present. Insert aligns to sequence for lacI (C0012 insert, vector was uncut)
  • C0012V-SAP'd (sequence to see what it was): EcoRI/XbaI/SpeI/PstI sites present. Insert aligns to sequence for lacI (C0012 insert, vector was uncut)
  • slr1+GFPf
  • Incorrect:
  • 3A:nrp: EcoRI/PstI sites present. 82bp insert aligns to sequence for E. coli flagellar biosynthesis RNA polymerase sigma factor
  • 3A:nrpg12-2: EcoRI/PstI sites present. 759bp insert aligns to sequence for E. coli fumarate reductase (anaerobic) catalytic and NAD/flavoprotein subunit
  • 3A:nrpg12-6: EcoRI/PstI sites present. 899bp insert aligns to sequence for E. coli protein C5 component of RNAse P
  • 3A:nrs2: EcoRI/PstI sites present. 85bp insert aligns to sequence for E. coli diaminopimelate decarboxylase, PLP-binding
  • 3A:nrs3: SpeI/PstI sites present. Insert aligns to pilA sequence and pSB1A3 transcriptional termination stem loop
  • 3A:nrsg10: SpeI/PstI sites present. Insert aligns to pilA + GFPf
  • pilA+GFPf12: GFPf only
  • plac+rbs1 (sequence to see what it was): EcoRI/XbaI/SpeI/PstI sites present. rbs (B0034) only
  • plac+rbs2 (sequence to see what it was): EcoRI/XbaI/SpeI sites present. Insert showed 97% similarity to RP4 origin of replication
  • plac+rbs12 (sequence to see what it was): EcoRI/XbaI/SpeI/PstI sites present. Insert is GFP only.
  • Resequence:
  • plac+rbs (no read -- only 5bp sequenced ?!?)
  • pilA+GFPf13 (no read -- only 5bp sequenced ?!?)

Discussion

  • Please throw away old plates in 4C fridge. Some have fungi growing on them already.
