Lab Work

Wet Lab

We did a lot of PCRs today. We tried to add the second part of the UmuD tag with the 91bp-primer. We had very sharp and extremely beautiful bands, but they seemed three times too long: FAIL. This will be done again tomorrow, with primers 2.1 and 2.2. The antisense LuxI PCR resulted in a smear: FAIL again. To be done again tomorrow. We also did a PCR to test the ligations.

We miniprepped the ligations we streaked out yesterday and part [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_R1052 R1052] and [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_R0040 R0040]. It's the second time we miniprep R1052 and the concentrations was two times very low. The registry shows that there are a few problems with this part.

We made some digests: [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_C0056 C0056] and [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_C0061 C0061] with SpeI and PstI and [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_R0040 R0040] with SpeI and EcoRI. We couldn't see R0040 on gel and C0056 seemed to be too big, only C0061 was ok. We purified C0061 and C0056.

We made a ligation of [http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_C0061 C0061]+[http://partsregistry.org/Part:BBa_B0015 B0015] (cut with PstI instead of EcoRI).
