Testdigest of pSB1C3 backbone

    • Temp.: eGFP-Plasmid
  2. GFP

    • Temp.: eGFP-Plasmid
  4. CFP

    • Temp.: CFP M4 Plasmid

Gel of PCR 1

expected length of the fragments: 1. CMV: 685bp 2. eGFP: 824bp 3.terminator: 350bp 4.CFP: 820bp bands were not expactly running as expected, but perhaps due to the marker. the marker bands are not separated clearly. So the bands were cut out and gel ex was performed. Nanodropping after the Gel ex: 1. CMV: 156ng/µl 2. eGFP: 143ng/µl 3. terminator: 163ng/µl 4. CFP: 85ng/µl

11.6.13

Gibson has worked: 6 colonies for minipreps

Testdigest: Gibson (6.6.13)

µl type
1 DNA
1 NEB-Buffer 4
0.5 NdeI
0.5 XhoI
Add to 10 µl H2O
  • Temp.: 37°C
  • Incubation time: 1,5h

the testdigest showd as expected 3 bands (896bp, 389bp ans 2517bp) Bands of clone 8 seemed to be right and we sent it for sequenzing (primer: 17, 18)

12.6.13

Sequnecing of clone 8 containing CFP were unclear. to test if the two plasmid are functional they were transfected into CHO cells. therefore 750ng DNA of each mini-prep were transfected per well in a 48 well plate.

13.6.13

In parallel to the transfection test a testdigest of piG6000 and piG6001 was performed.

Testdigest: piG6000 and piG6001

µl type
1 DNA
2 NEB-Buffer 4
0.5 NdeI
0.5 XhoI
Add to 10 µl H2O
  • Temp.: 37°C
  • Incubation time: 1,5h

clone 3 and 4 of piG6000 run as expected and they also show strong fluorescence in the CHO cells. Clone c,d,e and f of piG6001 run higher as expected but they do not show visible flourescence (this might be due to transfecting a mini-prep instead of a midi-prep) Clone 3 of piG6000 and clone e of piG6001 were sequenced

18.13

sequencing results of both constructs are positive.

18.13

midi-prep of pIG600 and retrafo of pIG6001

20.13

CMV min

Idea: making pIG6000 able to be activated by Cas9-VP16. therefore the constitutively active CMV promoter is exchanged by a CMV min. oligos will be designed to target PsB1C3 ao that VP16 can activate the minimal promoter and the cells start to show green fluorescence.

digest of pIG6000

µl type
10 DNA
5 NEB-Buffer cut smart
2,5 NheI HF
12,5 SacII
Add to 50µl H2O
  • Temp.: 37°C
  • Incubation time: 1,5h

digest of plasmid of Patrick and Anne (600)

µl type
10 DNA
5 NEB-Buffer cut smart
2,5 NheI HF
12,5 SacII
Add to 50µl H2O
  • Temp.: 37°C
  • Incubation time: 1,5h

Bands were as expected:
pIG6000: 631bp and 3154bp. here the higher band was cut out as it is the vector
pIGPanne: 109bo and 2683bp. here the lower, smaler band was cut out as it is the CMVmin prompter. Gel ex was performed

Ligation of pIG6002

µl type
7 vector
5 ,5 Insert
2 T4 ligase Buffer
1 T4 ligase
Add to 50µl H2O
  • Temp.: 16°C
  • Incubation time: 1h

Then E.Coli were transformed with 4µl of the ligation.

22.6.13

Mini-preps of pIG6002 were performed

23.13

test digest of pIG6002

µl type
4 DNA
52 NEB-Buffer cut smart
0,5 NheI HF
0,5 SacII
Add to 20µl H2O
  • Temp.: 37°C
  • Incubation time: 1,5h

all 6 digested mini showed the same positive result! therefore the CMVmin project is accomplished
