Ligation of Parts

  • The BioBrick parts of pRL1383a are to be ligated in a series of experiments.


Methods

Restriction Digest

  • Each part is digested with both enzymes. For all cases NEBuffer 2 is used.
  • Reaction Conditions:
  • 5ul Buffer
  • 1ul Enzyme 1 + 1ul Enzyme 2
  • 0.5 ul BSA
  • Xul water
  • Yul insert (1ug if possible)
  • Zul vector (less than 1ug)


  • Running Conditions: 2 hours at 37°C.
  • Check the progress of the reaction by running a 0.8% gel.
  1. Ligation
  • Refer to http://openwetware.org/wiki/DNA_ligation for the reasoning behind this.
  1. Transformation
  1. Verification with Colony PCR

Results

7/27

  • A few re-digests and ligations were performed this day: oriT + pSB1A3, oriV + pSB1A3, mob + B0024, rep + R0010, aadA(pRL1383a+R0010). Afterwards, the ligation product was transformed to DH5-alpha. Only OriT transformed. I did not check the progress of this experiment with a gel, so I am not sure where this went wrong.
  • Next time, a gel will be run after every step.

Discussion

  • What was learned and how to do future experiments differently.
