Purification of proteins: Z-alpha and Z-omega Piotr, Emilia

pET15b+Z-alpha and pET15b+Z-omega inoculated for overnight culture (Rosetta strain).

Checking whether degradation of the fusions with OmpA is caused by Lon and OmpT proteases (present in TOP10) Michał L. Separate transformant colonies (Rosetta transformation from previous day) inoculated to liquid LB with kanamycin.

Preparing pACYC177+OmpA_omega_&Delta;A construct Michał K.   Isolation of plasmids from cultures inoculated on previous day. Control digest of isolated plasmids (pACYC177+omega_&Delta;A) with HindIII and SacI (BamHI buffer)(Fig. 1.</a>). 7 from 8 colonies confirmed. </li></ol> <img src="http://2008.igem.org/wiki/images/8/89/Zz.jpg" width=300/></a> Fig. 1.
