Things we did today

Wetlab work

Triparental conjugation (cont.)

Grace
  • PCR'd BBpRL cultures to ensure that plasmid was retained
  • Plasmid was not retained (grown in SOB w/o selection = no reason to retain plasmid)
  • PCR'd BBpRL colonies #1 and 18 from plate to ensure plasmid present
  • Regrew RP1, BBpRL harboring cultures in 20ml SOB with selection (Kan50 and Sp100 respectively) and incubated at 37C overnight, with shaking (rpm = 250)


Verification of transformants

Grace
EtBr stained 25 agarose gel ran at 95V for 1 hour. Two microliters of PCR product were loaded into each well.
