Miniprep
Investigator: Dominik
Aim: preparation of the plasmids pSB1A3-iBB10+iBB9, pSB1A3-iBB11+iBB9, pSB1A3-iBB12+iBB9 and pSB1A3-iBB13+iBB9.

The plasmids were isolated with the “QIAprep Spin Miniprep Kit” (Qiagen, Düsseldorf) according to the producer instructions.

Digest
Investigator: Dominik
Aim: Test digest of the plasmids pSB1A3-iBB10+iBB9, pSB1A3-iBB11+iBB9, pSB1A3-iBB12+iBB9 and pSB1A3-iBB13+iBB9 with EcoRI and PstI

  • 1 µl Plasmid (pSB1A3-iBB10+iBB9, pSB1A3-iBB11+iBB9, pSB1A3-iBB12+iBB9 and pSB1A3-iBB13+iBB9)
  • 0.3 µl EcoRI
  • 0.3 µl PstI
  • 1 µl CutSmart
  • 7.4 µl ddH2O

The samples were incubated for 1 h at 37° C.

Gel electrophoresis
gel-electrophoresis-image

Gel substances

  • 1% Agarose gel
  • 10 µl RedSafe in 50 ml gel
  • x µl Hyper Ladder

Expactations

  • Lane 1: 5300 kbp
  • Lane 2: 3300 kbp
  • Lane 3: 1300 kbp

Worked as expected.

Sequencing
Investigator: Dominik
Aim: Analysis of the sequence of pSB1A3-iBB496315.

Obviously the wrong plasmid was sent out for sequencing. Due to the lack of enough plasmids for an additional sequence analysis, we will redo a new miniprep.

Transformation
Investigator: Dominik
Aim: Transformation of E. coli DH5α with the plasmid DNA pSB1A3-iBB4+iBB10+iBB96315 and pSB1A3-iBB4+iBB13+iBB96315.

The chemo competent E. coli DH5α cells were transformed with the plasmids pSB1A3-iBB4+iBB10+iBB96315 and pSB1A3-iBB4+iBB13+iBB96315 and plated on LB-Amp-plates.
The plates were incubated over night at 37° C.
