Lab Work
Wetlab
Today was our first day in the lab. We prepared LB-medium, Ampicilline,... Everything is now ready for the serious labwork: from tips to cleaning our benches. We did a first attempt to punch out a part of the registry. Then we transformed competent cells (DH5alpha) with the part. We started with the input device: M30109. Stefanie was very excited to pour plates!
Dry lab
Discovered that the LVA tagging T7 RNA polymerase is a no go as the C-terminus is part of the active site of the enzyme. We'll have to do N-terminal tagging, this could work, see the crystal structure of T7. See the link under literature on this wiki. Lon-mediated degradation of lambda excisionase (Xis) and E.coli UmuD gene product. 30-40 amino temrinal AA of UmuD should do the trick.
