Andrew, Nathan Puhl
Ran a gel to confirm presence of DNA from PCR on September 30 2008. DNA present in all wells, so a 2% agaraose gel was prepared for a gel extraction of DNA. 40uL of DNA was loaded and gel extracted using a kit.

Ran 1uL of gel extraction products on a gel to determine presence/quantity of DNA.
Band close to ~150 bp for the +18 rpsA DNA, which is approximately the correct size. No band present for the +1 TIR DNA, meaning gel extraction was not successful.

Ligation of +18 rpsA DNA into pGEM T-easy beacuse primer design requires DNA to be in a plasmid for endonuclease activity of restriction enzymes.
