Nathan Puhl, Roxanne
-Transformed DH5a cells with the biobrick part R0011 (pLacI) obtained from the 2007 iGEM parts. Plated on LB + amp agar plates.
September 1, 2008
Roxanne
-Picked 3 representative colonies and incubated them in LB+amp media overnight at 37.0C.
September 2, 2008
Roxanne
-plasmid prepped the pLacI cells which had been incubated the night before. Ran plasmids on a 1% Agarose Gel at 100V for 27 minutes
Nathan Puhl
-Visualized the Gel and Glycerol Stocked the Cells.
September 3, 2008
Roxanne, Nathan Puhl
-Performed a Restriction Digest of I13504 (RBS+GFP+dT) and R0011 (pLacI recombinant)
-10 uL template DNA -0.5 uL Restriction Enzyme #1 -0.5 uL Restriction Enzyme #2 -2 uL NEB 2 -7 uL ddH2O _________ 20 uL Reaction overnight at 37.0C
Mid-September, 2008
Roxanne, Nathan Puhl
-Have been working on Cloning the Reporter System. Transformation worked, however, the lack of Red colonies on the RFP plates and sub-culture have led us to believe that something didn't work somewhere along the way.
September 13, 2008
Roxanne
-Streaked Plates of RFP sub, TetR sub and pLacI
September 14, 2008
Roxanne
-Picked colonies from the RFP sub, TetR sub and pLacI plates. Incubating overnight at 37.0C in LB media + amp.
September 17, 2008
Nathan Puhl
-Plasmid prepped the RFP sub, TetR sub and pLacI cultures.
Nathan Puhl, Roxanne
-Restriction digest of the RFP sub and TetR sub with XbaI and PstI -Restriction Digest of pLacI with SpeI and PstI.
September 18, 2008
Nathan Puhl
-Ran a 1% agarose gel of the digestion products. RFP and TetR look good, however, pLacI is running high.
September 19, 2008
Nathan Puhl, Roxanne
-repicked colonies from pLacI plates for subculture in LB media.
September 20, 2008
Nathan Puhl, Roxanne
-plasmid prepped the pLacI culture. -Ran plasmids on a 1% agarose gel. -Oops, sub-culture it again.
September 21, 2008
Roxanne
-plasmid prepped the pLacI culture. -Ran the gel of the plasmid prep products
September 22, 2008
Roxanne
-Gel Extraction of pLacI x2, RFP sub, and TetR sub
