Proceeding of cloning CmR and oriT in standard plasmid
- Miniprep of 6 oriT and 5 CmR Std. samples

- 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
- expected fragments:
- -->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
Phage cloning strategy two
- 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
Characterization of oriT
- Inoculate the cells for conjugation test
5ml LB/chloramphenicol + glycerol stock Top10 pBAD 33
5ml LB/kanamycin/ampicilin +glycerol stock Top10 J01103+pUB307

Characterization of oriT
- Quantitatively test for oriT
Donor: overnight culture Top10 oriT+pUB307 OD(600nm): 2.08
Recipient: overnight culture Top10 pBAD 33 OD(600nm): 2.24
- Centrifuge 350ul overnight culture in 1.5ml eppi for 2min at 13000rpm, 8samples donor, 8samples recipient
- Wash the pellet twice with LB medium
- Resolve the pellet in 350ul LB medium
- Centrifuge the washed recipient for 2min at 13000rpm, discard the fluid
- Add the washed donor suspension
- Vortex and resolve the pellet
- Centrifuge the mix for 1min at 13000rpm
- Resolve the pellet in 100ul LB
- Put membrane filter on the LB agar
- Pipett the suspension on membrane filter (8samples)
- Incubate the plates with membrane filter at 37°C
- Put directly one membrane filter into 1ml LB in an 1.5ml eppi
- Vortex the eppi for 30sec, dilute for 10-5 and 10-6, plate them out on LB/Amp+Cm plates (0min)
- After 6, 12, 18, 24, 30, 36, 42 min repeat the last two steps.
- Negative control plates:
