-Inactivated the Enzymes in the morning

-Ran a gel of the tested pLacI, along with the previously cut RFP and TetR in the afternoon on 1% Agarose Gel in TAE.

-the iGEM pLacI had a faint band, RFP looks good (half of it cut), TetR looks like it all cut. Only used 2 uL for each sample, will try running with more.

-Reran the pLacI tests, RFP and TetR on a 1% Agarose Gel in TAE.

-Repicked pLacI x2, RFP and TetR colonies into LB+amp media since I've been having trouble with ligations. Brent suggested using lots of DNA in the ligation (<100 ng) to make ure that the ligation does in fact work this time.
