Digestion and ligation of the PCR we did yesterday

Yesterday we amplified flhD, flhC, flhDC with its promoter and E040 RBS+ Before the digestion, we have to determine the DNA concentration of the templates.

Measurement of DNA concentration

We used the biophotometer. We put 5 µL of template DNA in 95 µL of water. The Blank was made with 5 µL of EB Buffer (the one that was used for the elution of the DNA) in 95 µL of water.

Digestion

Protocol

Digestion name Template DNA Enzymes Volume of DNA
D 140 PCR 130 - E0240 RBS + PstI 5 µL
D 141 PCR 131 - flhD rbs - EcoRI-SpeI 5 µL
D 142 PCR 132 - flhC rbs - EcoRI-SpeI 5 µL
D 143 PCR 133 - flhDC + prom EcoRI-SpeI 5 µL
D 144 MP 142 - pSB3K3 EcoRI-SpeI 5 µL
D 145 MP122 - pSB1A2 EcoRI-SpeI 5 µL
  • X µL of Template DNA
  • Buffer (n°2) 10X : 3µL
  • BSA 100X : 0.3µL
  • Pure water qsp 30 µL
  • 1 µL of each enzyme
  • Incubate during about 3h at 37°C, then 20 minutes at 65°C (to inactivate the enzymes).
  • Exclusively for D 144 : 2 µL of Antarctic Phosphatase was added, 30 min at 37°C then 5 min at 65°C.

Results of the digestion

    For the digestion after PCR, an electrophoresis is useless : we can not separate DNA fragments that have 10 bp of difference.
Exclusively for D 145 a gel extraction was made because there was two fragments, the standard protocol was used (the picture is missing because we hadn't the USB key). The DNA purification after gel extraction was done according the standard protocol.

New PCR screening with the right primers

Transformants with pFlgA, pFlgB and pFlhB cloned into J61002 are analysed by PCR but this time with the right primers: VF2 (O18) and VR (O19).

  • template: bacteria from glycerol stock
  • positive control: J61002 (with ptet-mRFP)
  • negative control: no template

Electrophoresis

  • 1% agarose gel
  • 10 µL of each sample loaded
