Week 11: 08/4/08 - 08/7/08
08/4/08
- Plasmid digestion for:
J23100-B0030-C0040-B1006 (E-S) | R0040 (E-X) |
- Gel run/cut/gel extraction.
- Ligation: J23100-B0030-C0040-B1006-R0040. We incubated ligation at 16°C overnight.
- We had 5 plates to screen with colony PCR:
- B0030-C0051-B0030-C0079-B1006-R0051-B0030-C0062-B1006-R0062-B0030-E1010-B1006 (that we call "a")
- B0030-C0061-B1006-R0062-B0030-E0040-B1006 (that we call "b")
- B0030-C0078-B1006-R0079-B0030-E0040-B1006 (that we call "c")
- B0030-C0061-B0030-C0079-B1006-R0079-B0030-E0040-B1006 (that we call "d")
- J23100-B0030-C0040-B1006-R0040
- Last week J23100-B0030-C0012-B1006-R0010 colony PCR gave a bad result. For this reason, we decided to perform colony PCR only for:
- B0030-C0061-B1006-R0062-B0030-E0040-B1006 (7 colonies)
- J23100-B0030-C0012-B1006-R0010 (6 colonies)
- Gel result:
- b (2nd colony, but it was not pure. We decided to prepare single colonies plate for b)
- J23100-B0030-C0012-B1006-R0010 (1st colony)
08/4/08
- Plasmid digestion for:
J23100-B0030-C0040-B1006 (E-S) | R0040 (E-X) |
- Gel run/cut/gel extraction.
- We infected 9 ml of LB + Amp with 30 µl of C0062, 12, 22, 30, 27(2nd col), b(1st col) (see "Parts" section for our nomenclature).
- Single colonies plates for b, c, d.
08/5/08
- Glycerol stocks/miniprep for C0062, 12, 22, 30, 27(2), b(1).
- We sent C0062, 12, 22 and 30 to Primm for sequencing: all these parts contain BBa_C0062.
- We transformed/plated 28.
- Colony PCR for a (7 colonies), b(single colonies)(6 colonies), c(single colonies)(6 colonies), d(single colonies)(6 colonies).
- Gel results were not so clear: the length of some fragments was not expected and there were some contaminants. Maybe those parts were too long for our PCR reaction. We decided to grow 9 ml cultures for some of those colonies, to extract plasmids, to cut them and to check their length in a new run. We chose:
- a (1, 4, 6, 7)
- b (no colony was chosen: we already had them and this run didn't show any 100% pure colony)
- c (5)
- d (2)
08/6/08
- Single colonies plate for 28, because where were too many bacteria on its plate.
- Glycerol stocks/miniprep for:
- a(1)
- a(4)
- a(6)
- a(7)
- c(5)
- d(2)
- We cut these 6 plasmids E-P (5 µl of DNA in a final reaction volume of 20 µl).
- Run for digested plasmids. Gel results:
- a(1) OK
- a(4) False positive
- a(6) OK
- a(7) False positive
- c(5) OK
- d(2) OK
08/7/08
- Colony PCR for 28 single colonies plate (screening on 6 colonies).
- Gel results: all screened colonies were negative...
