Construction of pFlhB - mRFP Tripart (LVA+)

Aim : Construction of "pFlhB-RBS-mRFP-dbl ter" (pFlhB-I732078) Part icon regulatory.pngPart icon rbs.pngIcon reporter.pngPart icon terminator.pngPart icon terminator.png
We can only do the construction with mRFP Tripart (LVA+) because the stable strain with the Biobricks I732011 (mRFP Tripart LVA-) don't to growth.

Digestion

Measurement of the concentration of D187 purified

Protocol (it's same that for Miniprep)

=> the experiments of Gel Extraction  have failed, so we need to repeat the step of digestion.

Cloning of OmpR*

Digestion

Determination of the concentration of DNA

We used the biophotometer

  • 5 µL of template DNA or 5 µL of EB buffer for th blank
  • 55 µL of pure water
Template DNA Concentration of DNA
PCR 147 150 µg/mL
PCR 148 101 µg/mL
MP 101.2 353 µg/mL

Name of the digestions

Name of the digestion Template DNA What's in? Enzymes used
D 188 PCR 148 OmpR* XbaI-PstI
D 189 MP 101.2 pSB1A2 XbaI-PstI

Protocol of digestion

  • D 188 : 3 µL of PCR 148
  • D 189 : 3 µL of MP 101.2
  • 3µL Buffer (n°2) 10X
  • 0.3µL BSA 100X
  • 22.7 µL of pure Water
  • 1 µL of each enzyme
  • Incubate during about 2h30 at 37°C
  • 20 minutes at 65°C

Cleaning of the digestion products

Standard protocol.

Ligation

Determination of the concentration of DNA

We used the biophotometer

  • 10 µL of template DNA or 10 µL of EB buffer for th blank
  • 50 µL of pure water
Template DNA Concentration of DNA
D 188 9 µg/mL
D 189 30 µg/mL

Protocol of ligation L171

  • 2 µL Ligase Buffer 10X
  • 1.5 µL D 189 (vector)
  • 5 µL D 188 (insert)
  • 11.5 µL pure Water (qsp 20 µL)
  • 1 µL T4 DNA ligase at 400 000 U/mL concentration
  • O/N at 16°C


Checking mutagenesis FliA

EcorI/PstI digestion of mutated FliA

For this, i digested mutated FliA and non-mutated FliA with EcoRI and PstI and put in migration the digestion products running on gels.

Results : No digestion for the mutated sequence --> successful mission !
