← Yesterday ↓ Calendar ↑Tomorrow →
For Kok-Phen
I did some digestions(today), ligations(tomorrow) and screening (the day after tomorrow) for you.
I tried to build :
RBS (B0034) + OmpR*
and
RBS (B0034) + EnvZ*

- BSA 100X : 0.3µL
- Pure water qsp 30 µL
- 1 µL of each enzyme
- Incubate during about 3h at 37°C, then 20 minutes at 65°C (to inactivate the enzymes). Then 10°C overnight.
Transformation of the ligations we did yesterday
We transformed L 143, L 144 and the negative controls T1 and T2, using Invitrogen's TOP10 chemically competent cells standard protocol.

Digestions
After having succeded in amplifying the promoter and the gene of flhDC, we decided to clone it into a plasmid.
The first step is the digestion.
