Amplification of Promotors of interest (FliA, FliL, FlgA, FlgB, FlhB, FlhDC)

We performed PCR on to amplify the sequence in order to have enough amount of DNA to carry out the following of our experiments.


PCR Protocol

  • Preparation of the templates :--> Resuspend of 1 colony of MG1655 in 100µl of water.


  • List of Oligos :

  • Preparation of PCR mix :

For each samples,


1 µl dNTP
10 µl Buffer Phusion 5x
2,5 µl Oligo_F
2,5 µl Oligo_R
1µl template
1 µl Phusion
50 µl qsp H2O (33µl)


  • Program PCR: Annealing 55°C - Time élongation 1'30" - Number cycle : 29

Electrophoresis

When the PCR cycles were finished,

  • 10 µL of 6X loading dye were added
  • The samples were then loaded (2 x 30 µL per sample) on a 1,5% agarose gel.


After electrophoresis, the bands corresponding to MP 100 and MP 120 were excised and purified using the QIAquick DNA Gel Extraction Kit (QIAGEN). The elution was made in 50 µL of water. Because the intensity of the band corresponding to MP 120 was very low, we only continued with MP 100. MP 100 was digested by EcoRI & SpeI (Forward Insert) or by XbaI & PstI (D100 : Backward Insert).

DNA Digestion

Digestion reaction (total volume : 50 µL)

  • 25 µL DNA
  • 5 µL buffer 2 (10X)
  • 2 µL enzyme 1
  • 2 µL enzyme 2
  • 0.5 µL BSA (100X)
  • 15,5 µL water
  • Incubate 2 hours at 37°C
  • The samples (2 x 30 µL per sample) were then analysed by electrophoresis.


Electrophoresis (bis)

The sequence of MP 100 (B0034) digested by EcoRI & SpeI (35 bp) or XbaI & PstI (34 bp) was too short and we didn't manage to visualise it on the gel.

Conclusion : small parts like B0034 can't be cloned as an insert.
