General

  • Did mini-preps of J61003 because we were running out
  • Digested BisDA/B with single digests using AgeI and NgoMIV to test the enzymes because weve been getting cruddy digests when using both of them
    • UPDATE: It would appear that AgeI is cutting but NgoMIV isn't. Could be a buffer issue?

System 2

Today we have taken the ligation from yesterday and transformed it as well as digested it.

  • if all goes well the digested product should be B0034+TETR
    • Column Purified the digested product.
    • Then ligated the B0034+TETR with LacIQERE giving us a complete system 2.
    • PCRed the digested product i.e tetR+BOO34
  • Digested pTet with Spe/Pst. Column purified the digested product.
  • Digested RFP with Xba/Pst.

System 3

  • Digested 5ul of J61003 with Xba/Pst; this will let us insert the Tryp biobrick digested and ligated yesterday
    • Ran the digested J6 on a gel; gel purified
