Things we did today
Wetlab work
Restreaked BBpRL1383a construct
- Grace
- Looked at J33207+pRL1383a (BBpRL1383a) plates. 50 μl plate had blue colonies. Restreaked on LB+sp2.5+sm2.5 + X-gal
Inoculated for plasmid prep
- Grace
- Inoculated 200 ml TB+sp2.5+sm2.5 with blue colony. Incubated over the weekend at 37C with shaking at 250 rpm.
PCR verification of constructs
- Margaret
- 20 colonies from each of yesterday's transformation were verified by PCR today using the VF2 and VR primers.
Construction of GFP secretion devices
- Krystle
- Gel purified restricted nir+ rbs, slr+gfpf, and nir
- Dephosphorylated cut pSB1A3 vector
- Ligation
- nir+rbs with slr+gfpf
- lac with slr+gfpf
- nir with slr+gfpf
- Transformation into competent DH5;α cells and plated on LB amp100 plates
Drylab work
Sequencing
- Margaret
- Results for plac/rbs(30)/rep(7) came in. The promoter and rbs were not present. The only discrepancies in the sequence were due to bad sequence and could be explained by overlapping sequences.
- This construct is already ligated to oriV and the oriT/aada so next step will be to isolate that plasmid, digest with E,S and ligate the promoter and rbs in front. rbs (B0034) will be used because we have primers for this rbs and it can be easily verified.
