We transferred the transformed cells from yesterday to liquid medium and incubated at 37°C protocol.

We isolated the DNA from the transformed mCherry cells by using the miniprep protocol and measured the concentration by [http://www.nanodrop.com/library/nd-1000-v3.7-users-manual-8.5x11.pdf NanoDrop ND-1000 Spectrophotometer].

Transformed BioBricks

Tuesday 18.06.13

Started transforming BioBricks. Transformed some composite BioBricks consisting of constitutive promotor, RBS, a fluorescent protein and a terminator. Transformed the parts Promoter+RBS+RFP+term (<partinfo>BBa_I13521</partinfo>), Promoter+RBS+GFP+term (<partinfo>BBa_I13522</partinfo>), Promoter+RBS+CFP+term (<partinfo>BBa_I13600</partinfo>) and P_m+RBS+mCherry+term to competent E.coli DH5α cells, to have some colorful cells to show the camera crew from NRK (Norwegian broadcasting), who will visit our lab tomorrow :-)

For our transformation protocol, see the protocol page.

Wednesday 19.06.13

We transformed BioBricks consisting of fluorescent proteins. Transformed the parts YFP (<partinfo>BBa_E0030</partinfo>), CFP (<partinfo>BBa_E0020</partinfo>), RFP (<partinfo>BBa_E1010</partinfo>), GFP (<partinfo>BBa_E0040</partinfo>), BFP (<partinfo>BBa_K592100</partinfo>) and SYFP (<partinfo>BBa_K864100</partinfo>).

We transferred mCherry from agar plate to liquid medium and incubated at 37° C.

Thursday 20.06.13

We transferred the transformed cells from yesterday to liquid medium and incubated at 37°C protocol.

We isolated the DNA from the transformed mCherry cells by using the miniprep protocol and measured the concentration by NanoDrop.
