Overall Objective
Devise an array of inputs that can be linked to regulation of silencing.
Milestones
1. Define minimal fragment for light inducible dimerization.
2. Define the configuration of dimerization/regulatory domains that will yield desired function. (Silencing/Unsilencing)
Work Done
Week 1-2: Design AB and BD parts for combinatorial cloning (includes PhyB and Pif3 parts).
-Designed primers with their respective A/B or B/D ends to each of the genes.
-PCR'ed genes from Saccharomyces cerevisiae genome.
Week 3-4: Ligate AB + BD parts into 315 vectors.
-Ligation of parts into 315 high copy vectors.
-Transformation into E. coli.
-Test digest and ran diagnostic gels.
-Sent for sequencing.
Week 4-5: Subclone Pif3 constructs into 303 vectors for intregration into a yeast reporter strain [B3(H)].
-Digestion of Pif3 constructs and 303 integration vector for subcloning into 303 integration vectors.
-Ligation of cut Pif3 constructs into cut 303 integration vectors.
-Integration of 303 vectors with Pif3 constructs into GFP reporter strain B3(H).
Week 7-9: Transform the PhyB constructs into the yeast strains that were integrated with Pif3.
-Transform each strain with Pif3 constructs with PhyB constructs in 315 vectors.
Week 10-11: In the dark, added PCB, pulsed with respective light, ran FACs.
-During dilution in the morning, add the PCB in the dark. Pulse with 720nm light for about two minutes to separate PhyB and Pif3 constructs.
- Pulse with 660nm light for about two minutes to bring together the Pif3 and PhyB constructs.
- Pulse again wit 660nm light every two hours as PhyB and Pif3 separate in roughly three hours.
- Run FACs after growth.
