Monday 01.07.13

We transformed ''E.coli'' strain DH5α with some BioBricks: pBAD promoter (BBa_K206000), RBS (BBa_J61101) and a plasmid backbone (BBa_J01101).

Tuesday 02.07.2013

Small-scale vesicle preparation

This day we started making the small-scale vesicle preparation according to our protocol.
Overnight cell cultures of ''E.coli'' ER2566 and ''E.coli'' BW27784 transformed with the pUM9 plasmid were preprared. The pUM9 plasmid has amp^R induces a stress respons in ''E.coli'' when arabinose is present. According to the litterature (link?) stress in ''E.coli'' increases vesicle production.
The ER2566 cell were cultured in plain LB, while the BW27784 cells were cultured in LB with ampenicillin (100 µg/mL).

Transfer to liquid medium

We transferred the samples of tranformed DH5α (pBAD promoter (BBa_K206000), RBS (BBa_J61101) and a plasmid backbone (BBa_J01101) from agar plate to liquid medium and incubated at 37°C overnight.

Wednesday 03.07.2013

Small-scale vesicle preparation

The small-scale vesicle preparation continued with completion of step 2-7 in the vesicle isolation protocol. There where made three cell cultures in step 2; ''E.coli'' ER2566 in LB, ''E.coli'' BW27784 in LB with ampenicillin (100 µg/mL) (ara-) and ''E.coli'' BW27784 in LB with ampenicillin (100 µg/mL) with the addition of arabinose (0.5 %) after 1 hour of incubtion (ara+). The cell cultures in step 2 was incubated for 3 hours.
Optical denisty (OD) at 600 nm was mesured as indicated in the table below. No dilution of the samples was necessary.

Sample	OD₆₀₀
ER2566	0.9805
ara-	0.1263
ara+	0.0471

DNA isolaton from transformants

We isolated the DNA from the transformed cells pBAD promoter (BBa_K206000), RBS (BBa_J61101) and a plasmid backbone (BBa_J01101) by using the miniprep protocol and measured the concentration by NanoDrop ND-1000 Spectrophotometer.

Sample	Concentration
RBS	4,91
pTet1	8,99
pTet2	4,39
pBAD1	3,54
pBAD2	9,24

Thursday 04.07.2013

Continuation of the small-scale vesicle preparation according to the vesicle isolation protocol. Step 8-12 was completed with the exception that the pellet was resuspended in 0.5 mL DPBSS insted of 100 µL in step 11 and that the check for sterility in step 12 was not performed. The SDS-PAGE showed no signs of vesicles as viewed in figure 1.

Figure 1.

Monday 08.07.10

An overnight culture was started for vesicle isolation as desribed for tuesday 02.07.10.

Tuesday 09.07.2013

Today we ran PCR on 4 FP's BBa_K864100, BBa_K592100, BBa_E0040, E1010 and 1 backbone BBa_J01101. We used the Phusion DNA Polymerase protocol from New England Biolabs (NEB) for 50 ul sample(without DMSO). All amplicons were run on a GelGreen 0.8% agarose gel. We only got a band on our RFP E1010, and it was not the expected size. We will adjust the PCR parameters and run them again tomorrow.
Step 2-11 of the small scale-vesicle preparation protocol and step 1-4 of the density gradient protocol was performed. Samples from the small-scale vesicle preparation were made ready for SDS-PAGE.
The incubation period was revised from the first attempt to isolate vesicles. The duration and other condition is summerised in the table below.

	Sample	Sample	Sample
Time (h:min	ER2566	MW27784 ara-	MW27784 ara+

Optical denisty (OD) at 600 nm was mesured in step 4 as indicated in the table below. No dilution of the samples was necessary.

Sample	OD₆₀₀
ER2566	0.1671
ara-	0.6726
ara+	0.5968

Wednesday 10.07.2013

We ran the PCR again with different parameters. Increased annealing- and elongationtime and a separate program for the backbone due to its larger size. We still only got a band for RFP E1010. In the prosess of rechecking the primers it was discovered that the primers for RFP are incorrect which explains the discrepancy in productsize. The other primers should be working so tomorrow we will redo the dilutions of the primers, increase the elongation time and lower the annealing temperature a little, add DMSO, add a bit larger templatesample and use 1-step PCR.
SDS-PAGE were run with the samples from the vesicle preparaton from the day before. There were no indication of vesicles in the samples as indicated on the gel (figure 2).

Figure 2.

Step 5 of the purification of vesicles by density gradient was performed. The fraction were freezed down at -80 ^oC.

Thursday 11.07.2013

Today we ran PCR again. This time we omitted the RFP, since we discovered that one of the primers was incorrect. We diluted the primers one more time and changed the parameters for the PCR. This time we only did one step, with 30 cycles. We also decreased the annealing temperature and increased the elongationtime. The results were more uplifting this time around after running gel electrophoreses (picture coming soon). We got a clear band on the backbone and faint bands on the GFP and SYFP. Since there was a faint band on the backbone of a larger size than the one we wanted, we added 1 µl of Dpn1 to the amplicon and put it in a 37 °C waterbath for an hour. We used the QIAGEN PCR purification kit to isolate the DNA and measured the cioncentration by NanoDrop ND-1000 Spectrophotometer.

Sample	Concentration (ng/µl)
SYFP	13,16
GFP	55,62
BB	55,50

Friday 12.07.2013

We repeated the PCR on the SYFP and BFP. We changed some of the conditions (increased number of cycles and varying the template volume), but still no result.

Sunday 14.07.2013

Step 1 and 2 of the [https://2013.igem.org/Team:NTNU-Trondheim/Protocols Small-scale vesicle preparation] were performed. 5 mL cultures of the ''E.coli'' strains ER2566, DH5α and MW27784 were incubated in 5 mL LB at 37 ^oC for 8 h. 2,5 mL of these cell cultures were added to 250 mL of LB and incubated at 37 ^oC for 13 h.

Monday 15.07.2013

Small-scale vesicle preparation

Step 3-11 of small scale-vesicle preparation protocol and step 1-4 of the density gradient protoco was performed. Samples from the small-scale vesicle preparation were made ready for SDS-PAGE.
Optical denisty (OD) at 600 nm was mesured in step 4 as indicated in the table below. The samples were diluted 1:16 with LB media.

Sample	OD₆₀₀
ER2566	0.133
DH5&alpha	0.169
MW27784	0.198

A relative concentration of vesicles from the small scale preparation was mesured by adding the hydrophobic fluorecent dye FM4-64 and measuring fluorecence (RFU) (as desribed in step 12 in the small-scale vesicle preparation). Results (table below) indicated presence of vesicles in the ER2566-sample only.

Sample	RFU (exitation/emission at 506/750 nm)
Empty	3
Blank	19814
MW27784	19598
DH5α	19 254
ER2566	40 987

New rounds of PCR

Two rounds of PCR was run today with varying the conditions.There are still no result. For the BFP, we will wait for new primers, since the result are showing formation of primer dimers. A new transformation of the SYFP-biobrick was started to get a new template for the PCRs.

Tuesday 16.07.2013

SDS-PAGE were run with the samples from the vesicle preparaton from the day before. The ER2566-sample had vesicles, where as the other samples did not contain any (figure 3).

Figure 3: Ladder applied is Precision Plus Protein^TM Unstained Standards..

Step 5 of the purification of vesicles by density gradient was performed. SDS-PAGE were run on the fractions from ER2566, as this was the only sample with any indication of vesicles. As indicated in figure 4, fraction 4 and 5 had clear bands, whereas the fraction 6 has pale bands. The fractions are numbered according to when whey where removed from the gradient with fraction 1 beeing the first fraction to be removed and so on.

Figure 34: Ladder applied is Precision Plus Protein^TM Unstained Standards.

The rest of the fractions were freezed down at -80 ^oC. Too short incubation time in step 2 of the small-scale vesicle preparation seem to be the reason why vesicles were not isolated during the two previous attempts.
Due to postive results, the Small-Scale vesicle preparation was repeated: Step 1 and 2 of the Small-Scale vesicle preparation was performed. 5 mL cultures of the ''E.coli'' strains ER2566, DH5α and MW27784 were incubated in 5 mL LB at 37 ^oC for 8 h. 2.5 mL of these cell cultures were added to 250 mL of LB and incubated at 37 ^oC for 14 h.

ednesday 17.07.13

Small-scale vesicle preparation

Step 3-11 of the Small-Scale vesicle preparation protocol was performed on the ER2566, DH5α, and MW27784-samples.
Optical denisty (OD) at 600 nm was mesured in step 4 as indicated in the table below. The samples were diluted 1:10 with LB media.

Sample	OD₆₀₀
ER2566	0.281
DH5&alpha	0.293
MW27784	0.402

The DH5α had no pallet after the second centrifugation, and this sample where therefore not included further in the experiement. Some of MW27784 sample was lost in step 10 of the small-scale vesicle preparation. A part of the ER2566 and MW27784-samples from the small-scale vesicle preparation were made ready for SDS-PAGE. The rest of the samples were mixed with OptiPrep (60%) to give a final OptiPrep concentration of 45% and frozen at -80^oC.
A relative concentration of vesicles from the small scale preparation was mesured by adding the hydrophobic fluorecent dye FM4-64 and measuring RFU (as desribed in step 12 in the small-scale vesicle preparation). This time we also measured RFU with exitation at 515 nm and emission at 640 nm. As the last exitation and emission gave a more significant difference between the blank sample and the vesicle containing sample, this condition will be applied for later RFU-measurements. Results (table below) indicated presence of vesicles in the ER2566-sample and perhaps also in the MW27784-sample.

Sample	RFU (exitation/emission at 506/750 nm)	RFU (exitation/emission at 515/640 nm)
Empty	1	32
Blank	16536	1180
MW27784	16335	1691
ER2566	47 191	44 059

DNA isolation

We isolated the DNA from the transformed cells (with SYFP) by using the miniprep protocol and measured the concentration by NanoDrop ND-1000 Spectrophotometer.

Sample	Concentration (ng/µl)
SYFP1	30,5
SYFP2	20,8

We used the new isolated DNA as template in PCR, trying different parameters.

Thursday 18.07.13

SDS-PAGE were run with the samples from the vesicle preparaton from the day before. The ER2566-sample had a clear content of vesicles whereas the MW27784-sample had a less denser content of vesicles (figure 5). The MW27784 also seems to have a different protein profile.

Figure 5: Ladder applied is Precision Plus Protein^TM Unstained Standards.

Friday 19.07.13

''E.coli'' strain ER2566 was transformed with biobrick BBa_K530015 according to the transformation protocol. The plates were incubated for 19 hours and then moved to the fridge. The transformed ER2566 bacteria is later to be used for determination of influence of chloramphenicol on the cells and for growth duration for optimal vesicle production.

Monday 22.07.13

Three cell cultures of ''E.coli'' strain ER2566 transformed with BBa_K530015 was inoculated in Chl-LB and one cell culture of MW27784 were inoculated in LB for 7.5 hours at 37°C as described in step 1 of the small-scale vesicle preparation. The transformed ER2566 seems to grow slower in Chl_LB than untransformed ER2566 does in plain LB. Bigger overnight cell cultures were incubated as in step 2 of the small-scale vesicle preparation, the ER2566 cells were incolated in Chl-LB as before. The three ER2566 samples were incubated for 14, 16 and 18 hours, while the MW27784 sample was incubated for 16 hours.

Tuesday 23.07.13

Step 4-12 of the small-scale vesicle preparation were performed. In addition dilutions (10^-2, 10^-4 and 10^-6) of the ER2566 samples were made and plating of 100µL of 1 mL of the dilutions on Chl-LA was performed in step 4. The plates were left in the incubator overnight.
Optical denisty (OD) at 600 nm was mesured in step 4 as indicated in the table below. The samples were diluted 1:10 with LB media.

Sample	OD₆₀₀
ER2566 14h	0.247
ER2566 16h	0.347
MW27784 16h	0.533
ER2566 18h	0.328

Samples for SDS-PAGE was prepared in step 12.
RFU was measured as decribed in step 12 of the small-scale vesicle preparation protcol. Results were as indicated in the table below:

Sample	RFU (exitation/emission at 515/640 nm)
Empty	91
Blank	6 745
ER2566 14h	31 571
ER2566 16h	45 089
MW27784 16h	6 899
ER2566 18h	22 328

Wednesday 24.07.13

Small-scale vesicle preparation

Plates with transformed ER2566, plated the day before, were checked for colonies. As the 10^-2 and 10^-4 dilution had to much growth, only the 10^-6-dilutions were counted for colony forming units (CFU)(table below):

Sample	CFU (10^-6-dilution)	CFU/mL (undiluted
ER2566 14h	265	2.65*10⁹
ER2566 16h	278	2.78*10⁹
ER2566 18h	273	2.73*10⁹
ER2566	47 191	44 059

It seems that transformed ER2566 reaches steady state at 14h or quickly after 14h in the 240 mL cellmedia. The CFU results corresponds well with the measured OD₆₀₀ (table from the day before) except for that the OD₆₀₀ of ER2566 14h is more different from the other samples compared to the CFU-results.
SDS-PAGE were run on the samples prepared the day before. There were very weak bands on the on all of the ER2566 samples (not as visible in the photograph (figure 6) as in real life) and no indication of vesicles on the MW27784-sample.

Figure 6: Ladder applied is Precision Plus Protein^TM Unstained Standards.

The results of the SDS-PAGE does not correspond well to the results of the RFU-measurements from the day before. The RFU results indicate that the concentration of vesicles is higher.

New Primers

We recieved the new primers for the GFP, RFP and BB(Backbone) that we intend to attach to each other with Gibson Assembly. We got results from all and purified DNA using NEB Purification Kit.

Tranformation

Since we cannot seem to get the primers for SYFP and BFP to work and they are both developed by the same iGEM team we're testing them for futher characterization. Transformation of SYFP, BFP and an appropritate BB with promoter and RBS were done and plated out. The plates are incubated in 37 degrees overnight and put in the frige.

Thursday 25.07.13

Because the SDS-PAGE from yesterday did not give us expected results in terms of vesicles consentration, we started with the density gradient vesicle isolation with the ER2566 14h and 16h-samples to further test them for vesicles. Step 1-4 of this protocol was performed.

Isolation of Tat-sequence

We isolated the tat-signaling sequence beloning to the TorA gene from the "E. Coli" strain ER2566 using our designed primers with PCR.

Friday 26.07.13

Density gradient for vesicle purification

Step 5 and 6 of the density gradient vesicle isolation protocol was performed. The SDS-PAGE of the fractions show no or little indication of vesicles, further confirming the tendencies from the day before.

Gibson assembly

The Tat-PCR product was purified using NEB DNA Purification Kit. We will use our purified PCR products of Tat, GFP, RFP and BB in Gibson assembly.
The Gibson assembly reaction of the plasmid backbone, tat signal-sequence, GFP and RFP to create our first construct was performed according to the Gibson Assembly^TM Cloning Kit Manual. We made two samples, one with a incubation time (with the mastermix) of 60 min and one with 15 min. The control-sample was incubated for 15 min. The samples were then used for transformation of both ''E.coli'' strain DH5α and ER2566, giving us 4 samples. The transformation protocol was also collected from the TM Cloning Kit Manual. Transformed bacteria were incubated on plates with the appropriate antibiotics for 18 hours and then put in the fridge.

Insert(I)/Vector(V)	Concentration(ng/µl)	Size (bp)	µl
Tat(I)5X	35.84	150	1.5
GFP(I)2X	52.68	750	1.0
RFP(I)2X	98.31	750	1.0
BB(V)	73.82	2500	1.4

Add 10 µl of Gibson Mastermix and up to 20 µl dH₂O.
There were no colonies on the plates where bacteria transformed with the 60 minutes incubation time Gibson assembly plasmids. There were three colonies with ER2566 transformed with the 15 minutes incubation time Gibson assenmbly plasmids and one colony on the plate with DH5α.

Sunday 28.07,2013

The colonies with SYFP, BFP and BB was transferred to liquid media.

Monday 29.07.13

Small-scale vesicle preparation

Due to our unexpected vesicle yeild last week (see figure 6), we started a new round of small-scale vesicle preparation. Step 1 and 2 of this protocol was performed with ''E.coli'' strains DH5α, untransformed ER2566 and ER2566 transformed with biobrick BBa_K530015. The transformed ER2566 was inculated in LB with chloramphenicole. All cultures were incubated for 16 hours.

Miniprep

Isolation of SYFP, BFP and BB from last weeks transformation.

Restristion Digest

The GFP, BFP an BB wad digested using restrictionenzymes. We followed the protocol Restricion Digest. BB was digested with SpeI and PstI and SYFP/BFP with XbaI and PstI. The following ligation was performed using this Ligation Protocol using bot 1:1 and 1:2 vector insert ratio.

Tuesday 30.07.13

Small-scale vesicle preparation

Step 4-12 of the small-scale vesicle preparation were performed. In addition a 10^-6 dilution of the ER2566 samples were made and plating of 100µL of 1 mL of the dilution on Chl-LA was performed in step 4. The plates were left in the incubator overnight. The plate had growth, indicating that the bacteria still had their plasmid.
Optical denisty (OD) at 600 nm was mesured in step 4 as indicated in the table below. The samples were diluted 1:10 with LB media.

Sample	OD₆₀₀
Unstransformed ER256614h
Transformed ER2566 16h
Unstransformed DH5α

Samples for SDS-PAGE was prepared in step 12.
RFU was measured as decribed in step 12 of the small-scale vesicle preparation protcol. Results were as indicated in the table below:

Sample	RFU (exitation/emission at 515/640 nm)
Empty	93
Blank	22340
Transformed ER2566	27249
Untransformed ER2566	48478
Unstransformed DH5α	22029

From now on we will consentrate on ''E.coli'' strain ER2566.

Analysis of Gibson Assembly construct

Miniprep of Gibson Assembly construct and restriction digest gave wrong product on the gel. The size is not correct, so we must try again.

Check for contamination

Analysis of Gibson Assembly construct to ensure that there is no contamination in our 4 construct component DNA we put 1µl of each DNA sample in 50µl of competent cells(ER2566) and plated them out. Incubated at 37°C overnight.

Second Gibson Assembly

Analysis of Gibson Assembly constructWe used the same protocol, but changed the DNA concentration to 200 ng and increased the ratio of tat to 10X instead of 5X.

Insert(I)/Vector(V)	Concentration(ng/µl)	Size (bp)	µl
Tat(I)5X	35.84	150	2.5
GFP(I)2X	52.68	750	3.0
RFP(I)2X	98.31	750	1.5
BB(V)	73.82	2500	3.0

Add 10 µl Gibson Mastermix.
They where then transformed into ER2566 cells on 4 plates. Three plates with 5µl template, and one with standard 2µl template. Incubated at 37°C overnight.

Plate	Templatevolume(µl)	Colonies
1	2	3
2	5	36
3	5	37
4	5	250

Colonies where picked from all four plates and transferred to liquid media. Left overnight in 37 degrees shaker.

Wednesday 31.07.13

Small-scale vesicle preparation

SDS-PAGE were run on the samples from the day before. There were only a few weak bands on the gel (not visible on a potential picture) indicating vesicles in the unstransformed ER2566-sample only.
A new round of small-scale vesicle preparation was started with two transformed ER2566 samples (same conditions) and one sample of unstransformed ER2566. The transformed ER2566 had a plasmid that wes a product from the first Gibson Assenbly. Step 1 and 2 of the protocol was completed with the transformed ER2566 incubating in LB with chloramphenicol (25µL/mL) and untransformed ER2566 incubating in plain LB.

Restriction Digest of Gibson Assembly

We followed the procedure Restriction Digest in the registry.

Template	Concentration(ng/µl)	µl	dH₂O
1	17.9	14	2
2	137	2	14
3	26.7	9.6	6.5
4	20.6	12	4

Incubated at 50 &degree;C for 15 min. Run on gel, positive result for sample 1. Will do confirmation PCR tomorrow.

 <p>Step 5 of the purification of vesicles by <a href="https://2013.igem.org/Team:NTNU-Trondheim/Protocols"> density gradient</a> was performed. SDS-PAGE were run on the fractions from ER2566, as this was the only sample with any indication of vesicles. As indicated in figure 4, fraction 4 and 5 had clear bands, whereas the fraction 6 has pale bands. The fractions are numbered according to when whey where removed from the gradient with fraction 1 beeing the first fraction to be removed and so on.<br></p>
