Sebastian and Roxanne
Prepared 1L of semi-solid media following the procedure found on OpenWetWare.
-10g peptone (substituted for tryptone) -10g Agar -10g NaCl -5g Yeast Extract
Stored media in fridge.

Christa, Munima, Roxanne, and Sebastian
Prepared 1L of liquid media following the procedure found on OpenWetWare.
-10g peptone -10g NaCl -5g Yeast Extract
Poured 36 culture test tubes, and the remainder was left in a 1L Erlenmeyer flask. Stored both in fridge.
Christa
Made an inventory of iGEM 2007 parts in Wieden -80 freezer inventory.xls
Roxanne
Defrosted the -20 freezer in the teaching lab for iGEM use (with a little help from my friends!)

Sebastian, Munima, Roxanne, Christa
Poured 8 minimal media (labeled control- with blue sharpie) plates and 14 amp plates (labeled amp - with red sharpie) stored in the 4 C fridge. Amp concentration is always 50ug/mL.

Nathan Puhl, Munima, Christa, Sebastian, Roxanne
Plated cheZ knockout strain from glycerol on LB + amp and Plain LB to assess viability and antibiotic resistance at 37 C overnight. Transformed supercompotent cells with basic biobrick vector pSB1A7 (ampicillin resistance)
-50 uL of cells, 0.85 uL 2-mercaptoethanol, 1 uL of plasmid dissolved with 15 uL of ddH2O -30 min on ice -45 s at 42 C -2 min on ice -Add 0.9 mL of LB shaker incubate at 225 RPM and 37 C

Checked plates
-cheZ knockout strain viable on Lb, no growth on LB + amp - Good -Only one colony from transformation, not very good efficiency, don't know why because too many possibilities, most likely amount of DNA due to inability to quantifiy plasmid from iGEM plates -Subcultured colony in liquid LB + amp -Plate 200 uL on LB + amp at 37 C overnight

Munima, Christa, Alix, Nathan Puhl
Made glycerol stock of pSB1A7 transformed E. coli Extracted plasmid from transformed E. coli using the Eppendorff FastPlasmid minikit and stored 4 aliquots of 25 uL in the -20 C freezer.
