    • lane9: sample 9
    • lane10: sample 10
    • lane11: pBluescript with insert
  • --> we do not have a working GFP/CmR in pBlue/insert!!! --> do the ligation again (beginng from the mutagenesis pcr)

Proceeding of cloning CmR and oriT in standard plasmid

  • inoculation of CmR Std. Mutagenesis PCR sample and oriT Std. colonies

Proceeding of cloning CmR and oriT in standard plasmid

  • Miniprep of 6 oriT and 5 CmR Std. samples
    • digestion with EcoRI/PstI (to cut out insert of pSB1A2)

    • lane0: dna ladder mix
    • lane1-6: oriT 1-6
    • lane7: 1kb dna ladder plus
    • lane8: CmR Std. Mut 1.1.1
    • lane9: CmR Std. Mut 1.1.2
    • lane10: CmR Std. Mut 1.2.2
    • lane11: CmR Std. Mut 2.2.1
    • lane12: CmR Std. Mut 2.2.2
    • expected fragments:
      • oriT: 2000bp, 500bp
      • CmR: 2000bp, ca. 900bp
  • -->no oriT is right
  • -->CmR 1.1.1, 1.1.2, 2.2.1, 2.2.2 look good
  • -->sequencing of 2.2.1 and 2.2.2
    • sequencing results match perfect


  • Three ligations of oriT pcr product with pSB1A2 backbone (PstI, XbaI) (1:2.5, 2:5, 3:7.5 (µl, vector:insert))
    • 40min at RT
    • transformation, plated out on Amp plates


  • Screening PCR of oriT agar plates
    • pcr with standard plasmid primers (VF2, VR) using Taq
    • 12 pcr samples (1-6 only one colony, 7-12 three colonies)
    • Gel

    • lane0: dna ladder mix
    • lane1-12: screening sample 1-12
    • expected fragment length: ca. 500-600bp
  • -->sample 3 and 5 look good
  • -->inoculation of overnight cultures
  • -->sequencing of 3 and 5
    • sequencing results match perfect




new phage cloning strategy

  • Mutagenesis PCR of pBlue with insert to remove KpnI restriction site
    • using turbo Pfu
    • elongation: 12,5min
    • DpnI digestion 2h at 37°C
    • transformation in TOP10, plated out on Cm plate


phage cloning strategy one

  • mutation of old insert in pBluescript
  • pBluescript + insert was cut with BamHI --> the resulting backbone cut out of the gel and religated. With this vector 2 mutagenesis PCRs were done to eleminate the two remaining XbaI restriction sites.
  • The resulting vector was digested with XbaI/XhoI to get the insert with the correct restriction sites for ligation into lambda phage
