Things we did today

Wetlab work

Restreaked nir+rbs and I14032+rbs constructs

Grace

Plasmid prep (finished up)

Grace
  • Resuspended plasmid preps in 50 μl TE buffer
  • Determined DNA concentrations of plasmids
Plasmid DNA Concentration
nir 496.3 ng/μl
GFPf 484.8 ng/μl
BB-pRL1383a 508.0 ng/μl

Prep for sequencing

EtBr stained 4% agarose gel ran at 60V for 100 min. Twenty-five microliters of the PCR reactions were loaded into each well.
Grace
  • 25 μl PCR reactions of nir+rbs, I14032+rbs, slr1, slr2, BB-pRL1383a
  • Colony PCRs seem to indicate success
  • 25 μl PCR reactions of GFP+tt, GFPf+tt, J33207+tt
  • Colony PCR indicates no ligation. Picked new colony, sequence to confirm failure.
  • PCR of nir, B0015, B0030, B0034 for resequencing (bad reads last time)
  • Gel purified all PCR rxns (we still have a problem with contaminant DNA/shadow bands) and desired bands were extracted from gel
  • 2% agarose gel ran at 60v for 2 hours
  • Determined DNA concentrations via nanodrop spectrometer
  • Prepared samples and sent to CORE Hawaii for sequencing

Construct p+r+g and p+r+s

Krystle
  • Restriction Digest
    • nir+B0030, I14032+B0030, J33207 digested with SpeI and PstI
    • gfp, gfpfusion, and B0015 digested with XbaI and PstI
  • Gel Purified restriction digest
  • 2% agarose gel ran at 60 volts for 1.5 hours
40ul of the total restriction digest loaded into each well
    • gfp, gfpfusion, I14032+B0030, nir+B0030 extracted using Qiagen MiniElute tubes
    • B0015 and J33207 extracted using Qiagen cDNA purification tube
File:080808resdig.jpg
EtBr stained 2% agarose gel ran at 60V for 60 min. forty microliters of the restriction digest were loaded into each well.

Quote of the Day

History is the only laboratory we have in which to test the consequences of thought. - Étienne Gilson
