Things we did today

Wetlab work

Restreaked nir+rbs and I14032+rbs constructs

Grace

Plasmid prep (finished up)

Grace
  • Resuspended plasmid preps in 50 μl TE buffer
  • Determined DNA concentrations of plasmids
Plasmid DNA Concentration
nir 496.3 ng/μl
GFPf 484.8 ng/μl
BB-pRL1383a 508.0 ng/μl

Prep for sequencing

EtBr stained 4% agarose gel ran at 60V for 100 min. Twenty-five microliters of the PCR reactions were loaded into each well.
Grace
  • 25 μl PCR reactions of nir+rbs, I14032+rbs, slr1, slr2, BB-pRL1383a
  • Colony PCRs seem to indicate success
  • 25 μl PCR reactions of GFP+tt, GFPf+tt, J33207+tt
  • Colony PCR indicates no ligation. Picked new colony, sequence to confirm failure.
  • PCR of nir, B0015, B0030, B0034 for resequencing (bad reads last time)
  • Gel purified all PCR rxns (we still have a problem with contaminant DNA/shadow bands) and desired bands were extracted from gel
  • 2% agarose gel ran at 60v for 2 hours
  • Determined DNA concentrations via nanodrop spectrometer
  • Prepared samples and sent to CORE Hawaii for sequencing

Construct p+r+g and p+r+s

Krystle
  • Restriction Digest
    • nir+B0030, I14032+B0030, J33207 digested with SpeI and PstI
    • gfp, gfpfusion, and B0015 digested with XbaI and PstI
  • Gel Purified restriction digest
    • 2% agarose gel ran at 70 volts for 1.5 hours
    • gfp, gfpfusion, I14032+B0030, nir+B0030 extracted using Qiagen MiniElute tubes
    • B0015 and J33207 extracted using Qiagen cDNA purification tube

Discussion

Quote of the Day

History is the only laboratory we have in which to test the consequences of thought. - Étienne Gilson
