lab work (SD):
K102008 and K102008 negative control plates again had >100 colonies each. Verified sequencing for K102002. Digested K102002 with BamHI, with NcoI, and with BamHI+NcoI to test the digestion. Ran DNA from digest on 2% agarose gel. Gel reveals that digest of K102002 with BamHI formed two fragments. Conclusion: K102002 contains two BamHI restriction sites. A closer examination of the sequences indicates BBa_E0433 (LacZ alpha) contains a BamHI restriction site. A new version of LacZ alpha is required.
BBa_I732018 is LacZ alpha but lacks the BamHI restriction site. The DNA for this part is isolated from the iGEM BioBricks parts registry book according to the standard procedure.
