Chris

PCR Amplification of PTP2
  • Began running experimentation alongside Matt to increase chances of success
  • Ran 5 samples, including two water controls as per Cory's request.
  • Master mix: 50 uL Buffer, 5 uL dNTP, 12.5 uL F60 and F61, 2.5 uL DNA (at 25 ng/uL), 142.5 uL water.
  • Digestion of PSSA42
  • Ran five samples and one water control
  • Per tube: 3 uL water, 3 uL Buffer 3, 3 uL BSA, 1.5 uL XhoI and BamHI, 16 uL DNA template.
  • Incubated at 37 C for one hour
  • PCR Cleanup
  • Used PCR cleanup kit to purify PTP2
  • Measured absorbance of resulting DNA samples. The concentrations were found to be very low; PCR did not work. It was later determined that DNA template was not added, by accident.
  • PCR Amplification of PTP2
  • Ran PCR with same constraints as previously. Let run overnight.
  • Tammy and Dan

    0.8% Agarose Gel Electrophoresis of T123 PCR Products
  • Each PCR reaction tube (50 μL) was divided into 2 and ran on 2 separate wells to decrease DNA load and to ensure identification of appropriate band size
  • Agarose Gel Extraction
