| 1. Dephosphorylation: Continued with double digestion base vector product from 07-09-2008. Used Antartic phosphoylase to dephosphorylate the base vector. Want to dephosphorylate the base vector to prevent it from closing - want it to stay a linear digested product. After dephosphorylation, the base vector was then incubated @ 37C for 30 minutes. Sample was then placed in a heat bath @ 65C for 15 minutes to inactivate enzyme (phosphotase).
