Ligation of Parts
- The BioBrick parts of pRL1383a are to be ligated in a series of experiments.
Methods
Restriction Digest
- Each part is digested with both enzymes. For all cases NEBuffer 2 is used.
- Reaction Conditions:
- 5ul Buffer
- 1ul Enzyme 1 + 1ul Enzyme 2
- 0.5 ul BSA
- Xul water
- Yul insert (1ug if possible)
- Zul vector (less than 1ug)
- Running Conditions: 2 hours at 37°C.
- Check the progress of the reaction by running a 0.8% gel.
- Ligation
- Refer to http://openwetware.org/wiki/DNA_ligation for the reasoning behind this.
- Transformation
- Verification with Colony PCR
Results
7/27
- A few re-digests and ligations were performed this day: oriT + pSB1A3, oriV + pSB1A3, mob + B0024, rep + R0010, aadA(pRL1383a+R0010). Afterwards, the ligation product was transformed to DH5-alpha. Only OriT transformed. I did not check the progress of this experiment with a gel, so I am not sure where this went wrong.
- Next time, a gel will be run after every step.

Discussion
- What was learned and how to do future experiments differently.
