Things we did today

Wetlab work

Colony PCR

Margaret
  • 5 colonies of rep, P1 lytic region, and aadA(pRL1383a) region, each. pSB1A3 was used as a control.
PCR verification of aadA from pRL1383a using wrong conditions.
  • I changed the annealing time to 3min 30 seconds instead of the extension time, so the sites were not amplified properly. I ran the aadA(pRL1383a) construct on a gel and got a few bands, none of which were the right size. One of them should have been right though, so I am assuming this ligation did not work.
  • I ran another PCR verification on rep, P1, and the omega interposon and afterwards a gel.

Culture

Margaret

  • Plasmid preps from yesterday did not yield very high quantities. I am setting up the culture for oriV1-4 and aadA(BB) 4 so I can do another plasmid prep tomorrow.

Restriction Digest

Margaret

  • digest of I14032 with SpeI and PstI. I want to use this to ligate to the aadA(BB) construct.

Drylab Work

Sequencing

Margaret
  • Verified sequence of oriT, inserted into pSB1A2. The sequences of oriT and the BioBrick sites are correct.

Oligonucleotide Design

Margaret & Grace
  • We are having trouble with TT, RBS and Promoter ligations, so we decided to synthesize these parts.
  • B0016, I14032, B0030, & B0034

Discussion
