B. Perform PCR for K112319 A and B and separated with Clonewell. Started overlap extension.
6/18/2008
A. Received sequencing data. For K112319, there was a restriction site that was missed when designing oligos. Redesigned oligos. For parts with different sequences or point mutation, picked colonies.

6/16/2008
A. For colonies with perfect match in sequencing, we made a stock of them on a plate.
- 1. Transformed the plasmids sent in for sequencing into compotent cells.
- a. Mix of 220ul competent cells, 30ul KCM, 50ul water. Aliquot 30ul.
- b. Add mix to 1ul of plasmid.
- c. Incubate on ice for 10 min, heat shock at 42 C for 1.5 min, incubate on ice for 2 min.
- d. Transfer to plate.
- 1. Transformed the plasmids sent in for sequencing into compotent cells.
B. For colonies with point mutation, bad read, or other sequencing, we picked new colonies.
6/15/2008
The DNA sent for sequencing contained a lot of RNA, which affected some of the sequencing. Results for sequencing for pBca1256-K1112300 to pBca1256-K112320
6/14/2008
Bing came in to do a miniprep of the bacteria I picked yesterday using the Agencourt miniprep kit. This kit uses magnetic beads that bind dna to purify dna. The dna was sent out for sequencing analysis.

6/13/2008
A. Waited for colonies to grow larger.
B. Made 2xYT media and aliquoted 1ml.
C. Grew up the E.Coli in a 96 well plate.
6/12/2008
A. Use Clonewells to isolate DNA samples. Because sample B5 (K112312) may have been contaminated, PCR for b5 was done again.
B. Perform digestion using the follow procedure.
- 1. Make a solution of 5 ul NEB2, 15 ul DNA, 1 ul EcoRI, 1 ul BamHI, 28 ul water
- 2. Incubate for an hour
C. Clean up digestion with zymo columns.
- 1. Add 200ul ADB buffer to each of the digestion samples and pipette into zymo columns. Spin at 15s at full speed.
- 2. Add 200ul wash buffer. Spin for 15s at full speed.
- 3. Repeat step 2. Spin for an additional 90s at full speed.
- 4. Add 7ul of water to tube and spin for 30s at full speed.
D. Ligation
- 1. Mastermix: 6.5ul water, 1ul ligation buffer, 0.5 T4 DNA ligase, 1ul pBca1256. Aliquot 9ul.
- 2. Add 1ul of insert.
- 3. Cover with foil and incubate for 30 min at room temperature.
E. Transformation (always keep on ice)
- 1. 220ul competent cell in one tube, thaw on ice.
- 2. Add 30ul KCM and 20 ul water (both cold).
- 3. Invert ~2x to mix.
- 4. Aliquot 45ul cell into 10 ul of ligation rxn. (swirl and pipette up and down once)
- 5. Foil and Incubate 10 min on ice.
- 6. Heat shock 90s at 42 C.
- 7. Add 50 ul of LB.
- 8. Incubate 1 hr at 37 C.
- 9. Plate

Note: Oligos came and diluted
A. Made the vector pBca1256
